When I first posted about the Body Vibe x Star Wars jewelry collection, I knew right away which piece was at the top of my wish list – the Star Wars logo hoop earrings. Entertainment Earth’s order page has them arriving in March, but during one of my regular searches around Amazon, I found them currently in stock! Unfortunately Amazon’s price is US$48.00, compared to Entertainment Earth’s pre-order price of US$34.99 – but as I live outside the US, Amazon’s international shipping options are cheaper. Also, my husband wanted to get them for me as a Valentines Day gift, so he bought them from Amazon and they arrived in time.
They arrived from Amazon packaged in a lovely little black box, inside were the earrings on their backing card. The earrings are stainless steel – I assume they are gold plated like the other gold-toned earrings in the collection, though neither Amazon or Entertainment Earth have detailed information about the materials used. The hoops measure approximately 5cm across (2″), with a hinged lever at the top for wearing. The Star Wars logo is very well done, with clear cut outs and the black enamel adding a great level of contrast with the gold. They have a good weight to them, but not too heavy when worn. I was expecting the standard Lucasfilm copyright stamp on the back, instead it is etched very small on the under-edge of the logo. I was really impressed with the Jedi Order logo earrings from the same collection – these impress me even more. It is a design I haven’t seen used in Star Wars jewelry before, I definitely want to pick up more from the collection!
