Leeward Opal Huggie Earrings
Description
The Leeward Opal Huggie Earrings | A Tiny Flash of Light
Named for the sheltered side of a ship, the Leeward Opal Huggies are designed to be a quiet, glowing addition to your everyday stack. Made by hand in high-quality 14K Gold Vermeil, these reverse open huggies feature the soft, multi-dimensional fire of natural opal.
The design is intentional and understated—the reverse open silhouette allows the opal to sit flush against the lobe for a look that feels seamless and personal. Whether worn alone for a minimalist moment or tucked into a second piercing, they offer a subtle flash of color that catches the light with every movement.
-
The Details: Natural opal set in a modern reverse open huggie silhouette.
-
The Size: Approximately 3/8-inch diameter—designed to hug the lobe perfectly.
-
The Metal: High-quality 14K Gold Vermeil.
-

Why we love it: We love how much character is packed into such a small piece. The Leeward Huggies don't demand attention, but the way the opal reflects light is a beautiful "hidden secret" for those who get close enough to see. They are a comfortable, polished staple that works as well in a curated ear as they do on their own.

GENERAL CARE TIPS FOR ALL JEWELRY:
- Storage Matters: When not being worn, store your jewelry in a dry, air-tight container. A plastic bag is ideal for this purpose.
- Avoid Water Exposure: All jewelry is waterproof, but it’s not mineral or chemical proof. Minimize exposure to pools, saunas, and beaches. The minerals and chemicals in these environments can cause oxidation.
- Limit Contact with Products: It's best to avoid sunscreens, lotions, oils, soaps, shampoos, conditioners, body washes and perfumes. The chemical additives in these products can affect the metal's finish. It’s always best to remove your pieces if there is a possibility of coming into contact with any additives.
- Remove During Activity: To prevent damage, remove your jewelry before working out or sleeping.
- Handle with Care: Be mindful when handling your jewelry to avoid scratches or impacts.
