The spike is a separate charm, not fixed to the hoop, which means it swings and catches the light as you turn your head. It’s a small bit of independent movement that sits right below your earlobe.
You’re looking at a pair of small huggie-style hoops made of polished, warm-toned 14K gold. Each one has a solid, cone-shaped spike charm dangling from a tiny ring. The hoop itself is about a centimetre across, so it sits close to the ear. The whole earring, spike included, has a total drop of just over two centimetres. Every surface is smooth and reflective, creating those bright, sharp highlights you see.
We make these from a single material: solid 14 Karat gold. It’s an alloy of 58.3% pure gold, with other metals added to make it strong enough for daily wear. This is important because it means the warm gold colour is consistent all the way through; it won't ever rub off or fade. It also means they're a good choice for sensitive ears. Because the material is so durable, you don't have to worry about taking them off to shower or sleep.

This earring is for someone who wants more than a plain hoop but doesn't want a heavy, distracting dangle. The spike charm is solid but very lightweight, so it won’t pull on your piercing. The hinged huggie closure is also really secure and sits flush, making it comfortable enough to forget you’re wearing it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I shower or sleep while wearing my 14K gold Luminous Spikes Earrings?
Yes, you can wear your solid 14K gold earrings in the shower and while sleeping. Because the metal is solid, not plated, water won't damage it. The huggie closure is also very secure and low-profile, which makes them comfortable enough for constant wear without them falling out.
Will the spikes on the Luminous Spikes Earring catch on my hair or clothes?
The spikes are polished completely smooth and have a rounded tip, not a sharp point, so they are very unlikely to snag on hair or knit fabrics. We designed them to have a distinct shape while still being practical and comfortable enough that you don't have to think about them.
How do I know if the 1cm hoop on the Luminous Spikes Earring will fit my earlobe?
A 1cm hoop is designed to "hug" an average earlobe, sitting quite close to the skin. The best way to check is to measure the distance from your piercing to the bottom of your lobe. If that distance is under 8mm, these should fit perfectly with a little space.
What happens if I receive the Luminous Spikes Earrings and they don't fit?
You have 30 days from the delivery date to return them for a full refund or exchange, no questions asked. Just send an email to returns@vanhess.ca, and we'll reply with a prepaid shipping label. We want you to be happy with your jewellery, even if it means sending it back.
Is shipping really free for the Luminous Spikes Earrings to the United States?
Yes, we offer free shipping on all orders over $60 CAD, which includes these earrings, to addresses in Canada and the US. For orders to the UK and Europe, shipping is free on orders over $110 CAD. You can typically expect your package to arrive within 5-15 business days.
