Hand hammered sterling silver hoops with sterling ear wires. Stamped .925 purity. 1.5 inches in diameter. These silver hoop earrings are a well thought out and time tested design. Having an "endless hoop" look they do not have a hinge but rather a very strong solder at the connecting point and a slot closure. This solder will last forever if not overworked. Move the wire only the amount needed to place on the ear. These earrings are hand made by a silver smith here in the USA. The weight of the pair is 7 grams.
