Details
Diameter: 24mm
Are these handmade?
Yes, I design and make every pair myself in my Sydney studio in small batches. These are one of my own favourites.
Is the silver solid or plated?
Solid 925 sterling silver, never plated. Made to wear often and last for years.
How do they fasten?
On a sterling silver post that clicks securely into place at the back. A lovely secure closure that holds all day, with no separate backs to lose.
Are they comfortable to wear?
Very. At 24mm they have a real presence while staying light, finished in a soft satin, the kind of everyday hoop you keep reaching for and forget you have on.
Are they alright for sensitive ears?
Solid sterling silver with no plating, which a lot of people with sensitive ears find easy to wear.
Will they tarnish, and how do I care for them?
Sterling silver can pick up a light patina over time and comes back with a soft cloth and a gentle polish. Store them in the pouch they arrive in and keep them away from perfume and hairspray.
How long will they take to arrive?
Because these are over $120, they ship free with Express Post, usually 1 to 2 business days once dispatched. I dispatch within 2 working days from my Sydney studio and send tracking as soon as it is on its way.
Will they arrive ready to gift?
Beautifully packaged and ready to give, with gift wrap and a handwritten card available at checkout.
A soft polishing cloth is all you need for most tarnish on polished surfaces. On the satin finish, gently buff in one direction with a green Scotch-Brite scourer, the kind you can pick up from most supermarkets, until the tarnish lifts and the satin finish is restored.
Store your jewellery somewhere dry and away from direct sunlight, ideally in a soft pouch or lined box rather than loose in a drawer. Keeping it away from other jewellery helps prevent scratching.
Every piece I make is solid sterling silver, handcrafted here in my Sydney studio, built to be worn every day and to last. If your jewellery ever needs a proper clean or polish, reach out and I'm happy to help.
I pack every order by hand in my Sydney studio.

International
Each hoop starts as a flat piece of sterling silver sheet, cut and domed by hand before the two halves are soldered together into that curved shape. The clasp gets made the same way, shaped and fitted by hand rather than bought in, so the whole earring, catch included, comes off my bench start to finish.
