9ct Yellow Gold 0.10ct Diamond Hoop Earrings 17.2mm

A diamond hoop carries its stones around the face of the ring, so each setting has to follow a curve while holding its stone square to the viewer.

This one is 9ct yellow gold, set with 0.10 ct of natural mined diamonds graded GH/SI. Made from 100% certified Australian gold. The line runs to 20 individually set stones.

Will this suit me?

• Size: Sold as a pair. Each hoop is about 17.2 mm across, set with 10 diamonds; the pair carries 0.10 ct of natural diamonds in total.
• On the ear: A small hoop that sits just below the lobe.
• Everyday wear: The hinge and catch take the wear, so close them fully each time. Earrings take very little wear, and 9ct is the harder alloy, so these will stand up to being worn every day.
• Other options: Metal: 18ct yellow gold. Hoop sizes: 11.77 mm, 12.66 mm, 13.05 mm, 19.94 mm.
• Matching pieces: Photographed as a set with the 0.50 ct bracelet, 0.10 ct drop earrings and 0.12 ct necklace.

The hinge and the catch decide how long a hoop lasts; both are worked every single time the earring goes in.

9ct yellow gold is 375 parts per thousand fine gold. The higher alloy content makes it hard and more scratch-resistant than 18ct, which is why it's always been the popular choice for everyday wear.

Care. Sold as a pair. Open and close at the hinge rather than springing the hoop.
