The black enamel on these hoops provides a solid, dark background that makes the rose gold dots pop. They aren't plated or painted on; they're part of the underlying gold frame, polished to catch the light as you move.
You're looking at a pair of small hoop earrings designed to sit closely against the earlobe. The outer face has a channel of black enamel running its length, punctuated by six evenly spaced dots of polished 14K rose gold. The inner and side surfaces show the warm colour of the solid gold. They close with a hinged post that clicks into a V-shaped catch, so there are no separate backs to lose.
These are made from solid 14 karat rose gold, not plated metal. 14K gold is 58.3% pure gold alloyed with copper and silver, which gives it that warm colour and makes it strong enough for daily wear. This means the hinge won't wear out, and the colour won't rub off over time. The inlay is a certified jeweller's enamel, which is fused to the gold for a hard, glossy finish that won't chip or fade with normal use.

Most small hoops are just plain metal. The enamel gives these a graphic look that’s more defined from a distance. They’re very light, and the integrated clicker closure is secure and comfortable enough to sleep in, so you can just put them on and leave them in.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do the gold dots on my Midnight Eclipse Earrings look like they're inside the black enamel?
The dots are actually part of the solid 14K gold earring frame. We cut the channel for the enamel but leave those small circular sections of gold in place. The enamel is then carefully filled in around them and polished flat, creating a smooth surface where the gold appears suspended in black.
Can I wear my 14K gold and enamel earrings in the shower or while working out?
Yes, you can wear them in the shower and during workouts. Both solid 14K gold and the certified enamel are waterproof and won't be damaged by sweat or soap. Just be sure to give them a gentle rinse and pat dry afterwards to keep them clean and free of residue.
How do I know if the Midnight Eclipse huggie earrings will fit my earlobe piercing?
These hoops have an inner diameter of about 9mm, which is a standard size for a first or second lobe piercing on most adults. To check the fit, measure the distance from your piercing to the bottom edge of your earlobe. If it’s less than 9mm, they will fit with a bit of space.
