Product Insights
The Anissa Earrings from Midi34 offer a high-fashion pedigree from Milan Fashion Week and an exclusive Simons partnership, delivering a 3cm dangle of six hard cubic zirconia stones that produce more rainbow sparkle than diamonds with D-color clarity, all at $75. The seamless hoop design enables side-sleep comfort, but the gold-plated silver construction requires careful maintenance—avoiding lotions, perfumes, sweat, and ultrasonic cleaning—and the plating may wear over time, especially with daily wear as sleepers. While the sterling silver core is nickel-free, the gold plating may contain nickel, posing a tradeoff for sensitive ears. The stones are lightweight for all-day comfort and Mohs 8.5 resistant to scratches, making this a durable, visually striking alternative to diamond earrings.

Deep Research
Gold vermeil durability and care
- Designed for occasional rather than daily wear, 14k gold-plated sterling silver can retain its gold look for several years if kept away from lotions, perfumes, and sweat—constant friction or chemical exposure will gradually reveal the silver underneath.
- 14k gold contains 58.3% pure gold, yielding a noticeably warmer and more saturated yellow than 10k gold (41.7% pure), the minimum purity allowed for vermeil—so the gold tone on these earrings is closer to the rich look of solid 14k jewelry.
- Gold-plated sterling silver will naturally tarnish when exposed to air, moisture, and sulfur, but regular gentle wiping with a dry cloth keeps the surface bright; avoiding ultrasonic or steam cleaners prevents stripping the gold layer.
- Gold-plated sterling silver provides the visual warmth and feel of solid gold jewelry at a fraction of the cost, a value proposition that makes gold-tone designs like these cubic zirconia sleepers accessible.
- The earrings' substrate is 925 sterling silver, an alloy of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper, which means the earrings have intrinsic precious-metal value beyond the thin gold surface—unlike gold-plated brass or copper jewelry where the base metal holds negligible worth.
Midi34 brand and competitive alternatives
- Using 14-carat gold-plated 925 sterling silver sleepers rather than brass or alloy bases positions the Anissa earrings in the demi-fine jewelry space; at $75, they deliver a higher-metal-content build that typically outlasts standard fashion jewelry in both luster and wear, bridging the gap between costume and fine pieces.
- Midi34's debut at Milan Fashion Week in September 2024 and subsequent features in Harper's Bazaar and Elle give the brand a fashion-week stamp of credibility — buying the Anissa earrings means tapping into a label that the international style press considers noteworthy, not just a local shop.
- Since 2019, Midi34 has produced an exclusive collection for La Maison Simons, meaning the Anissa earrings are sold only through a curated Canadian department-store partnership — this limited distribution creates a boutique feel and reduces the likelihood of seeing the same piece everywhere.
Sleeper earring design and all-day wear
- Measuring a full 3 cm from the top of the hoop to the lowest point of the dangle, the earring extends far enough to be noticed below the hairline but stays within the midi-length range that avoids dipping into the neck crease or getting pinned under the jaw during side-sleeping—keeping the hoop’s secure fit undisturbed.
- The sleeper comfort of the Anissa comes from its 12mm hoop—a classic huggie scale that fits snugly around the lobe to eliminate the gap that can snag on bedding, while distributing the earring’s weight along the curve of the ear rather than pulling at a single point.
- The two faceted cubic zirconia drops are set in the same gold vermeil, adding a subtle glint that enlivens the earring without the weight penalty of heavier glass or metalwork—a critical balance for a sleeper that stays in for 8+ hours of sleep without tugging or rotation.
- Unlike stud earrings that jab the skin with a sharp post and butterfly clasp when you turn in your sleep, the Anissa’s hoop-based design eliminates any protruding backing—its seamless or hinged closure sits flush against the lobe, letting you sleep comfortably on your side without pressure points.
Cubic zirconia sparkle and quality
- At Mohs 8.5, cubic zirconia resists scratches from most household objects but can be marked by harder abrasives like topaz or sapphire; because earrings experience far less contact and friction than rings, the stones in this 3 cm drop design are unlikely to develop the premature clouding that often shortens a CZ ring's brilliance to around two years.
- Cubic zirconia costs less than 2% of a lab-grown diamond, so the $75 price point enables a dramatic 3 cm dangle silhouette that would be unattainable with mined or lab diamonds, positioning the Anissa earrings as a high-impact fashion accessory rather than a fine-jewelry investment.
- Cubic zirconia's dispersion of 0.066 (vs diamond's 0.044) produces noticeably more rainbow-colored flashes, so these earrings project a lively, attention-grabbing sparkle that reads as festive and energetic rather than the more restrained brilliance of diamonds.
- Cubic zirconia is completely colorless straight from the lab, matching the highest D color grade on the diamond scale, so these earrings deliver a bright, icy-white sparkle that appears clean and high-contrast against the 14-carat gold-plated setting.

Q&A
2 answered- Are the cubic zirconia stones natural or lab-created?
- Cubic zirconia is a lab-created synthetic gemstone, not natural, so these stones are lab-created.
- Is the gold plating nickel-free and hypoallergenic for sensitive ears?
- The product is made from 14-carat gold-plated 925 sterling silver. Sterling silver is generally nickel-free, but the gold plating may contain nickel unless specified otherwise. We cannot confirm if this item is nickel-free or hypoallergenic for sensitive ears.
