Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between hoop earrings and huggie earrings?
A huggie sits close to the earlobe, while a hoop has more drop and swing to it.
Are chunky hoop earrings still in style?
Chunky hoops have been an ear stack staple for years, and they’re not going anywhere.
Can hoop earrings be worn every day without irritation?
Most people wear hoops every day with no issues. If you have sensitive ears, look to our solid gold hoops as your hypoallergenic go-to.
What’s the difference between gold-plated and gold vermeil hoops?
All our gold vermeil jewelry in the UK is stamped with the '925' mark to indicate the sterling silver purity. The plating process is different as well as gold vermeil is plated with a process known as ‘electrolysis’, making the jewellery very durable. All our pieces are tested by the Assay Office (which tests the purity of precious metals), as required by law.
Gold-plated jewellery, on the other hand, involves a base metal – brass in our case – which is plated with a layer of gold. It's more affordable but less durable compared to gold vermeil.
How heavy are gold hoop earrings, and will they stretch my earlobe?
Many of our hoops are designed to be lightweight for all-day wear, even the chunkier styles. Larger hoops will naturally feel heavier, so start with a small or medium size if you’re unsure.
Can I wear hoops in a second or third piercing?
Yes. Smaller hoops and huggies sit best higher up the ear, leaving bigger statement hoops for the lobe.
What’s the best hoop size for a first pair of statement earrings?
A medium hoop is the easiest place to start, with enough presence to make a statement. Check our Hoop Size Guide to find your fit.
Do hoop earrings tarnish, and how do I care for them?
Keep hoops away from water, perfume and lotion, and wipe them with a soft cloth after wearing. Want hoops you never have to take out? Look to our solid gold or water-resistant styles.
