These are proper huggies, so they'll sit right up against your earlobe. The front is a perfect checkerboard of bright turquoise and deep navy enamel, set right into the gold channel, so the surface is completely smooth.
You're looking at a pair of small, circular gold hoops. The front face of each earring has eight tiny squares of enamel set flush in a channel, alternating between a vibrant turquoise and a dark navy blue. The gold is highly polished on the outside, which contrasts with the slightly textured finish you can see on the inside of the band. The closure is a simple, secure hinge that clicks shut.
The base of these earrings is 14 karat solid gold, not plated. That means it’s 58.3% pure gold mixed with other alloys for strength, which makes them durable enough for daily wear without bending out of shape. The solid gold also means the colour won't rub off, and they're unlikely to irritate sensitive skin. The colour comes from certified enamel, which is carefully layered into the gold channels and fired to create a hard, glossy surface that won’t easily chip or fade.
- Material: 14K Solid Gold

You'd pick these for the colour. Lots of huggies are just plain gold, but the enamel here gives you a pop of blue without adding any size or dangles. It's a way to wear colour that's integrated right into the structure of the earring itself, flush and smooth to the touch.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the enamel on the Lizzy Blue Earrings chip or fade over time?
The enamel on the Lizzy Blue Earrings is very durable and shouldn't chip or fade with normal wear. We use a certified, hard-fired enamel that fuses to the 14k gold. While a very hard impact could damage it, it's designed to hold its colour and glossy finish for years.
Can I shower or swim while wearing my 14k gold and enamel Lizzy Blue Earrings?
Yes, you can shower in your 14k gold earrings. However, we recommend taking them off before swimming in pools or hot tubs. The solid gold can handle the water, but prolonged exposure to chlorine and other chemicals can dull the enamel's finish over time.
How do I know if the Lizzy Blue huggie earrings will fit my earlobe?
These are designed as classic huggies, meaning they sit very close to the earlobe. They work best on first or second lobe piercings. If you have thicker earlobes or your piercing is higher up, they might be too snug. We can provide exact inner diameter measurements if you need them.
What happens if I receive the Lizzy Blue Earrings and they don't fit or I don't like them?
You can return your earrings within 30 days of receiving them for a full refund, provided they are in unworn condition. Just email us at returns@vanhess.ca, and we will send you a prepaid shipping label to make the process easy for you.
