One inch in diamond-cut gold is a hoop with genuine presence and genuine sparkle simultaneously - the scale provides the visual authority of a statement earring while the faceted surface adds a brilliance that plain hoops at this diameter cannot match. The 18K yellow gold over sterling silver finish amplifies the warmth that the faceted cuts direct toward the eye, creating an earring that earns attention from across a room without requiring any additional accessories to make it work. At exactly one inch, this is the size for the customer who wants more than everyday subtlety but less than full statement drama. Saddleback closure. The third option in the diamond-cut family.
