These Large Braided Hoops are another great pair of everyday earrings which are really comfortable to wear. I like to wear simple earrings when I layer my necklaces. They also look lovely layered with my smaller braided hoops.
These hoops are not made in my workshop, they are handmade by a silversmith workshop in England.
SIZE
Hoop Diameter: 16 mm
MATERIALS
Silver:Solid sterling silver.
Gold:Solid sterling silver - plated in responsibly sourced and ethical 24ct Gold.
My gold pieces are classed as Vermeil, this means that the base metal is Sterling Silver and there has been 2.5 microns of 24ct gold deposited on its surface. I plate my rings to 5 microns as they see more wear and tear.
Vermeil gold is the hardest wearing gold plate as it has such a high minimum deposit required. However it will still naturally fade over time,especially in high pressure areas such as where the jump ring sits on the chain. Please read how to prolong the life of your gold jewelleryhere. I offer a re-plating service which you can find out abouthere.

This is actually my Christmas gift from my husband, so technically not opened yet! That said I have the 8mm hoops both in silver and gold which I love, so I’m pretty sure these will be beautiful as well :)
