14k Gold-Filled Double Pearl Ear Cuff

$320.00

This 14k gold-filled double pearl ear cuff is handmade by Andrea Li: a hand-fabricated 12 gauge gold-filled ear cuff set with two freshwater 8–8.4 mm grade-A pearls. It is part of Aglow, her collection of gilded, barely-there pieces built to be worn and layered without a second thought. The ear cuff sits at 2½″ total length, hugging the outer edge of the ear with no piercing required.

Two pearls, not one, is a deliberate choice. The pairing creates movement and a soft visual weight that a single stone does not, while staying within the range of effortless. Wear it alone as a quiet statement, or pair it with a simple stud in the lobe and let the cuff carry the composition. It is the kind of piece that works for a Tuesday morning meeting and a Saturday night in equal measure.

Handmade and collectible.

Grade-A freshwater pearls are chosen for luster and consistency of surface, the qualities that separate a pearl worth looking at up close from one that gets lost in the crowd. Because pearls are soft, around 2.5 to 3 on the Mohs scale, I apply them last in my process, after any metal forming is complete, so the nacre surface never gets near heat or abrasion. Put the cuff on after lotion and perfume; take it off first. That is the whole care routine. Explore the full collection at Aglow.

Does this require piercing?
No. The ear cuff is hand-fabricated to sit along the outer edge of the ear without a piercing. It holds by gentle tension and is sized to fit most ears comfortably.
What is this made of exactly?
A hand-fabricated 12 gauge gold-filled ear cuff set with two freshwater 8–8.4 mm grade-A pearls. Gold-filled is a solid layer of 14k gold bonded to a base metal core, far more durable than plated and safe for daily wear.
How do I care for pearl jewelry?
Pearls are soft, around 2.5 to 3 on the Mohs scale, and their nacre surface responds to acids and oils. Put the cuff on after lotion, sunscreen, and perfume; take it off first before washing or swimming. Wipe gently with a soft cloth after wearing. Store it away from harder stones that could scratch it. That is the full routine.
What is the Aglow collection?
Aglow is Andrea Li’s collection of gilded, barely-there pieces, designed to be worn alone or layered as part of a considered composition. Each piece is made in her Denver studio in gold-filled, solid gold, or sterling silver.
