The details that matter
A precisely sized solid-gold hoop made to complement the middle curve of your ear.
1. Why you’ll love it
A fine, minimal hoop designed to wrap neatly around the middle outer edge of the ear — the placement commonly known as the auricle or mid helix.
Wear it alone for a subtle point of gold or combine it with lobe and upper helix jewellery to create a balanced ear stack.
Designed for fully healed auricle piercings.
2. Material & finish
Made from genuine 14ct solid gold — never plated or gold-filled.
- Available in yellow, white or rose gold
- Nickel-free
- Available in 18G and 20G
- Suitable for sensitive, fully healed piercings
- Made for long-term everyday wear
3. Choosing your size
The inner diameter determines how closely the hoop wraps around the middle edge of your ear:
- 6mm: close and compact
- 7mm: a balanced everyday fit
- 8mm: slightly more room and visibility
- 9–10mm: a looser, more prominent hoop
Choose the same gauge as your current jewellery. 18G measures 1.0mm, while 20G measures 0.8mm and creates a finer look.
Your ideal diameter depends on the thickness of your ear and the exact position of the piercing. Measure an existing well-fitting hoop or ask your piercer if you are unsure.
4. Wearing your seamless hoop
Open the hoop by gently twisting the ends sideways in opposite directions. Do not pull the ends directly apart, as this can distort its shape.
Guide one end through your fully healed piercing, then twist the ends back into alignment. If the piercing is difficult to reach, ask a professional piercer to fit it for you.
