These classic sterling silver hoop earrings are an essential for the woman who is comfortable in her skin, embraces aging, and is ready to be seen and take up space. They're so versatile and go with everything. I even wore the pair I was testing to bed and had no discomfort at all! They're shaped, forged and built by my two hands, and include a handmade hinged ear wire and catch. Very secure! If you don't have these essentials, get them now! • the earrings are 25mm (1") in diameter • the silver has a shiny finish.
