Baby’s Breath Small Hoops14K yellow gold with diamonds

My goal was to contrast this humble yet ethereal flower with the most luxurious materials – diamonds and gold,” says designer Gwen Barba. The hoop earrings in this feeling are easy to wear and versatile and the juxtaposition of the humble flower against the longevity of gold creates a feeling of lasting romance to gift to that person who makes you feel light and lifts you up to recognize your abilities and strength.
