Shifting color

Bright Loop places a pear-shaped opal at the base of a round hoop. Opal shows a play of color, soft flashes of blue, green and gold that move as the light and the angle change. The round hoop frames the stone clearly, so the color seems to unfold as you turn your head.
Each opal is about 9 by 6 millimeters, and the pair carries about 1.74 carats of stone in total. The hoop is 20 millimeters across, a size that sits along the earlobe and shows the stone clearly from a short distance. Opal's color can seem to change within a single day, from soft pastel tones to brighter flashes.
Light and bright
Hoops that catch the day
Light hoops that suit a plain top, a shirt collar or a soft knit.
The hoops are light and balanced, with about 5.01 grams of metal in each pair. They move gently as you walk, so the opal catches the daylight in a natural, relaxed way through the hours.
Yellow gold plating warms the opal and gives the hoops a soft, golden frame. White rhodium plating keeps the look cool and clean, letting the color of the opal lead. Both finishes sit well with everyday clothes and a relaxed evening.
The meaning of creativity
Opal is often linked with creativity, positivity and gratitude, a reminder to look for fresh ideas and to see the light in ordinary moments. Bright Loop is a small, personal symbol of that idea, something you can wear when you want to make or imagine something new. The meaning is yours to choose, and the earrings make no promise of a particular result.
Some people wear opal hoops for an October birthday or when they start a creative project. Others choose them as a gift for someone who loves color and quiet originality. Creative people often choose a piece like this because it seems to hold a little of the unexpected.
Choosing your hoop size
The hoops are 20 millimeters in diameter. Compare them with a hoop you already wear to see how they sit along your earlobe before you order.
A slightly smaller hoop keeps the look close and neat, while the full size gives an open, relaxed line. Choose the size that suits the way you dress most days.
Caring for the opal and plating
Opal can be sensitive to heat, sudden temperature changes and chemicals. Remove the hoops before swimming, showering, exercise and sleep, and keep them away from hot surfaces and perfume.
After wear, wipe the hoops with a soft dry cloth and store them in a separate, soft pouch. Keep them apart from harder jewelry so the opal and the plating stay protected.
Find your metal tone
Two plated finishes with the same opal hoops. Choose yellow gold for warmth or white rhodium for a cool, clean line.

Frequently asked questions
Is the opal natural?
Yes. Opal is a natural stone, and its play of color shifts with the light, so each pair looks a little different.
Are the hoops solid gold?
No. The finishes are 18kt yellow gold plating and white rhodium plating. Both are thin layers over the base metal.
How big are the hoops?
The hoops are 0.78 inch, or 20 millimeters, in diameter. Compare that size with a hoop you already own before you order.
Are these in stock now?
They are a pre-order piece. They are made after you order, so they ship later than in-stock pieces. Check the delivery estimate shown at checkout.
Is it an October birthstone piece?
Yes. Opal is the October birthstone, so these hoops are a thoughtful choice for an October birthday or a creative gift.
Do the earrings promise any effect?
No. Opal is often linked with creativity, positivity and gratitude, and those are meanings you can choose. The earrings make no promise of a particular outcome.
Can I wear them in the shower or pool?
Please remove them before swimming, showering or exercise. Opal can be sensitive to water and sudden changes, and chlorine can wear the plating.
How should I clean them?
Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners, steam and harsh polishes, which can damage the opal and the plating.
