Product Insights
Made of 100% brass with crystal inlays; the gold colour is gold-tone plating over brass, not solid gold. The orb is about 2 cm high and 2.7 cm wide; the listing's 2 cm figure appears to refer to height, not width. The design is a polished gold-tone orb-and-cross in bas-relief, not an antiqued or oxidised finish. Gold-tone plating is the visible surface; wear-through can appear as a dull yellow or brown shift as the brass beneath becomes visible. Avoid water and abrasive materials; do not shower, swim, or apply perfume or lotion while wearing. At 175 CAD, value rests on the designer orb styling, crystal sparkle and branded packaging rather than solid-gold materials.
Verified claims
- fit and sizing
- The orb is about 2 cm high and 2.7 cm wide; the listing's 2 cm figure appears to refer to height, not width.
- fit and sizing
- Post-and-push-back studs sit close to the lobe, but the raised bas-relief orb and crystals stand proud rather than flush.
- materials
- Made of 100% brass with crystal inlays; the gold colour is gold-tone plating over brass, not solid gold.
- construction
- Push-back closure for pierced ears, with the signature engraved on the back.
- construction
- Crystal inlays are set into the orb and cross, with faceted raised studs and small iridescent rhinestones across the bas-relief surfaces.
- design
- The design is a polished gold-tone orb-and-cross in bas-relief, not an antiqued or oxidised finish.
- styling and heritage
- The orb motif ties to Vivienne Westwood's punk and Baroque heritage, making the earrings a recognisable brand statement rather than plain gold studs.
- styling
- Bright gold and crystal sparkle suit evening or dressy looks, while the stud format can work as an everyday signature piece.
- comfort
- Push backs can lose grip over time, snag hair or clothing, and poke when lying down, though they pair well with stud-style earrings.
- comfort
- Taking them out overnight is the most effective habit to reduce load on the piercing and prevent posts from bending.
- durability
- Gold-tone plating is the visible surface; wear-through can appear as a dull yellow or brown shift as the brass beneath becomes visible.
- durability
- Brass is relatively soft, around 3.0 on the Mohs scale, so the earrings can scratch or dent with rough wear.
- durability
- Earrings are classified as minimal-friction, with expected plating lifespan of years and first wear at the post and butterfly back.
- crystal durability
- Crystal settings are typically pavé or bezel; bezel-set crystals resist dislodging but cannot be replaced individually if damaged.
- care
- Avoid water and abrasive materials; do not shower, swim, or apply perfume or lotion while wearing.
- care
- Perfume's alcohol and acids can permanently damage the finish; apply perfume, lotion and hairspray first and let them dry before putting the earrings on.
- care
- Clean with a soft, dry polishing cloth; for built-up residue use a barely damp cloth with a trace of mild soap, then dry immediately rather than soaking.
- care
- Store in a sealed bag away from bathroom humidity, and remove before washing or cleaning.
- packaging
- Presented in a designer box; Westwood jewellery boxes are made from 100% recycled paper and the box is treated as part of the product for returns.
- value
- At 175 CAD, value rests on the designer orb styling, crystal sparkle and branded packaging rather than solid-gold materials.
- variants
- One-size, gold-only variant for pierced ears; no alternate size or colour is offered.
