These oval, tapered hoop earrings feature a distinctive, tapered and elongated shape. The unique silhouette sets them apart from the usual hoop earring and gives them their artistic look. Inspired by the tapered gold hoop earrings worn in Ancient Greece, they have a satin, subtly distressed surface which adds to their charm.
Available in solid sterling silver or 24ct gold over bronze and sterling silver.
Gold: Whilst the hoop form is cast in bronze, the earwires and scroll backs are sterling silver. My gold plating is of the highest quality, a hugely thick layer of 2.5 microns of 24ct gold that gives a warm, rich surface that will not wear away. I have found that the thickness of the gold, means that they are suitable even for those that are allergic to silver.

I am a jeweller from Totnes in Devon, I make everything by hand in my home studio. I aim to create beautifully simple and perfectly balanced contemporary. I am inspired both by the Devon landscape and my love of the jewellery worn in Ancient Greece. Whilst I have always loved hoop earrings, I like to wear hoops that are different from the rest. The tapered and elongated shape of these, combined with the soft, satin surface make this pair my perfect, arty hoops.
