Product Insights
Twenty Compass's Soleil Earrings are a C$29.95 plated-stainless entry into fashion hoops, offering a secure one-hand-clicking stainless-steel hinge that resists bending and corrosion, with natural citrine bead charms that detach so the pair transitions from plain huggies to 25mm pendant drops and coordinates with the Soleil Necklace. The core promise is affordable, versatile everyday wear, but the tradeoff is material honesty: 14k gold plating can wear off at friction points, exposing trace nickel and ruling out severe allergies, and while the brand markets shower-to-gym durability, its own care guide says remove before water and workouts, while natural citrine's color shifts lemon-to-gold and cream-beige between pairs, making this a stylish substitute rather than a solid-gold or diamond piece.
Verified claims
- Stones
- Natural stones are natural citrine — not heat-treated amethyst or dyed filler.
- Stone color
- Corn/Vanilla Yellow beads photograph cream-beige and vary lemon-to-gold between pairs.
- Removable beads
- The citrine beads detach, so the hoops can be worn plain or as a citrine drop.
- Closure
- Closure stays secure, clicks on with one hand, and is comfortable for all-day wear.
- Hinge durability
- Stainless-steel clicker hinge resists bending and stays corrosion-free even if plating wears away.
- Removable charms
- Citrine bead charms detach, turning the same clicker hoops into plain huggies or pendant drops.
- Hypoallergenic limits
- Gold plating can wear off, exposing trace nickel; not for severe allergies.
- Piercing required
- Requires pierced ears; matching Étoile Chain uses a lobster clasp for unpierced wear.
- Removable pendants
- Removable citrine pendants make each pair a plain huggie or a 25 mm drop.
- Everyday wear
- Brand markets for shower and gym wear, but its own care guidance says remove before water and workouts.
- Necklace pairing
- Brand recommends wearing with the Soleil Necklace for a matched citrine look.
- Water resistance
- Marketed for shower-to-gym wear, but its care guide says remove before showering, swimming or exercise.
- Gold plating longevity
- Water alone won't dull the 14k finish; perfumes and rubbing at the posts will.
- Solid-gold tradeoff
- Solid-18k pieces (David Yurman DY Madison Cable, Chopard Ice Cube) have no plating to wear; this is 14k plated over steel.
- Stainless steel core
- Stainless steel core keeps the clicker firm and doesn't corrode from water, sweat, or plating wear.
- Nickel risk
- Gold plating is hypoallergenic at purchase; wear can expose stainless-core nickel, not safe for severe allergies.
- Precious metal tradeoff
- At C$29.95, this is a plated-stainless substitute — not actual 18K gold or diamond.
- Charm attachment
- Each bead charm hangs from a small gold loop with a pin at its base — not a prong or bezel setting.
- Plating wear
- Gold plating can wear off at the hinge and charm contact loops, exposing trace nickel.
- Wear options
- Marketed as the Soleil Necklace's companion; the citrine drops detach so the hoops can be worn plain.
- Daily wear
- Marketed for shower-to-gym daily wear, though the brand's care guide says to remove the earrings before water and workouts.
- Price positioning
- At $29.95 CAD, an entry-price fashion hoop versus David Yurman and Chopard gold-and-diamond hoops — not a solid-gold substitute.
- Étoile comparison
- Soleil is the pierced-ear, lower-priced pair; Étoile Chain is the unpierced-wearer necklace in the same Twenty Compass range.
- Versatility
- Removable citrine drops let the pair switch from plain huggies to pendant earrings and pair with the Soleil Necklace.
- Luxury comparison
- Soleil's plated stainless isn't a stand-in for solid-gold or diamond hoops from David Yurman or Chopard.
- Price position
- 29.95 CAD at Simons versus the €4,400 David Yurman Madison and $15,700 Chopard Ice Cube pieces.
- Plating tradeoff
- Stainless steel core won't bend or corrode; when gold plating wears it fades rather than turning green or black.
- Value
- Soleil Earrings are the lower-priced Twenty Compass piece: $29.95 at Simons vs the Étoile Chain's $55 list price.
- Scale
- Soleil is the compact piece in brand context: a 25 mm drop with 10 mm beads vs the Étoile Chain's 30 mm pendant.
- Color consistency
- Natural citrine makes each pair's shading unique, so matching pieces drift lemon-to-vanilla rather than match exactly.
- Care
- Water does not alter the finish; the maker still advises removal before showers, swimming, and workouts.
- Styling
- Charms detach, so the same pair wears as plain huggies or citrine drops and coordinates with the Soleil Necklace.

Negative feedback on Twenty Compass jewelry quality and service
Really bad quality of gold. Their plated product goes off after the first time I wear them. I bought two different rings, both really cheap. Really disappointed from their products and the customer services.
