Full details

FAQs

What material are the Inicio Opal Huggie Hoops made of?

They are crafted from sterling silver with a premium 3-micron sterling silver plating and feature a luminous opal accent.

How should I clean these earrings?

Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth. For tougher marks, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid all chemicals and abrasive materials.

Are these earrings suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, their lightweight huggie design makes them comfortable for all-day wear. However, to maintain the plating, it is recommended to remove them during strenuous activities, showering, or sleeping.

What is the significance of the 'huggie' design?

A huggie is a small hoop earring that fits snugly around the earlobe. They are known for their comfort and ability to be worn for extended periods without discomfort.

How do I style these hoops?

They can be worn alone for a minimalist and elegant look, or stacked with other earrings, such as studs or smaller hoops, for a more contemporary, layered style.

What is 3-micron sterling silver plating?

This refers to a heavy, premium layer of sterling silver applied over a base metal. It provides a brighter finish, better resistance to tarnish and wear, and a longer-lasting quality compared to standard plating.

What are the dimensions of the hoops?

The hoops have a width of 2mm and a length of 15.8mm.

Troubleshooting

Earring tarnishes quickly

Ensure earrings are not exposed to moisture, chemicals (perfume, lotion), or sweat. Clean with a soft, dry cloth and store properly when not in use.

Post and catch is difficult to close

Ensure there is no debris in the catch mechanism. Gently align the post and apply slight pressure. If the issue persists, inspect for any bending of the post.

Opal appears dull or discoloured

Gently clean the opal with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid harsh cleaning solutions. Discoloration could be due to absorption of chemicals or prolonged moisture exposure.

Skin irritation after wearing

While sterling silver plating is generally well-tolerated, remove earrings immediately if irritation occurs. Ensure ears are clean. This may indicate a sensitivity to the base metal or plating.

Cons

  • Plated jewelry requires careful maintenance to prevent wear and damage.

Care Instructions:

  1. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Keep away from perfumes, lotions, hairsprays, and cleaning agents, as these can damage the plating.

  4. Storage: Store in a soft pouch or a lined jewelry box, separate from other jewelry to prevent scratching.
