925 Sterling Silver CZ Enamel Pig Nose Double Hoop Earrings
The pig nose is the most immediately charming shape in the kawaii fine jewelry vocabulary. But this is not the pig nose huggie — the small, close-fitting hoop that holds the pig face gently against the earlobe. This is the pig nose hoop — the statement earring, the one that requires two piercings, the one that hangs and moves and catches the light and the eye simultaneously. The double hole design means that this earring passes through two piercings at once, creating the layered, architectural look that is the most distinctive and most intentional of all the earring forms — the earring that is not simply worn but constructed, the fine jewelry piece that requires commitment and rewards it with the most dramatic and most memorable look in the collection. The enamel — vitreous glass fused to the 925 sterling silver surface at high temperature — fills the pig nose form with color: purple, the color of royalty (in ancient Phoenicia, Tyrian purple dye was extracted from sea snails at a rate of ten thousand snails per gram of dye, making it more expensive than gold, the color that only emperors and kings could afford to wear); or blue, the color of the sky and the sea, the color that is simultaneously the most calming and the most expansive, the color that appears in more national flags than any other. White zircon CZ accent stones add the diamond-look brilliance that makes the enamel color appear most vivid and most luminous. This 925 sterling silver hoop earring sets white zircon CZ and enamel in the pig nose geometric design using the inlay and enamel techniques, in 14K gold plating, at 3.56g. The earring that requires two piercings and rewards them with the most charming and most colorful statement in the collection.
