Gold hoops are earrings that will be found in the collection of someone who’s into jewellery and even the beginner earring lover. Partly because it can do something for everyone — huggies for minimalists to textured hoops for the statement makers.


They work for every season too and are never out of fashion. Gold earrings have been worn by everyone from Kate Middleton to royal engagements to Alia Bhatt for a magazine front cover! Hoop earrings come in a range of shapes and sizes and are an easy way to add polish regardless of the occasion.


Gold hoops have a classic style that has endless designs and that has made them stay relevant after years of changing trends. That’s why we think a woman can never have enough gold hoop earrings!


So, to keep you in the gold hoop loop, we’re rounding up all of our hoop styles in one mage hoop catalogue. Read on and find which 18kt gold hoops you need to invest in!


The History Behind The Hoop


The hoop earring has been seen in several cultures throughout history- this isn’t a new fashion statement! Both men and women have been adorning their bodies with jewellery since the earliest days of civilization.


Although the exact history of hoop earrings is debated, it has been documented in ancient Sumeria, Nubia (now present-day Sudan) and East Asia.


Different variations of the hoop have been adopted by a range of cultures around the world, from the Hmong women of Vietnam to the Gadaba tribe of India. In 1500 BC Egypt, even cats — that most sacred animal — were adorned with gold hoop earrings.


Hoop earrings were first associated with working-class Mexican neighbourhoods in Southern California in the 1980s and 1990s but they have since become an essential part of black, Latina, and working-class communities everywhere.


HOOP EARRING STYLES

 



1. Gold Huggies
Huggie earrings earned their name by the way they snugly fit close to the earlobe and are the choice for those who love a dainty style. While they might be small in size, they make a big impact.

Wear your small gold hoop earrings alone or if you have multiple piercings up the lobe, create a stunning combination of small hoops with varying textures and gemstones!

 



2. Large Gold Hoop Earrings

A large hoop earring is more of a fashion statement than the huggie, but they still are perfect for an evening ensemble or a daytime look where a sprinkle of attitude is needed! 

 

These work well with higher necklines and grace the shoulder, which means there’s no need to add a necklace.

 

 


3. Diamond Hoop Earrings (sol, diamond hoop)

When just 18kt gold won’t do, go for iconic diamond studded hoops or one that features a diamond drop! Although diamond huggies look small, their sparkle can easily take you from day to night.


OurSol Earrings are a favourite, featuring a dainty diamond charm hoop that elongates the face and draws attention to the ears.
