At one and a quarter inches, the polished gold hoop enters statement territory without leaving versatility behind - this is the size that carries a room without requiring any additional jewelry to justify the attention. The 18K yellow gold over sterling silver finish creates that characteristic warm gold brightness that gives the hoop its authority, and the clean, unadorned polished surface keeps the design focused entirely on form and scale. A saddleback closure keeps the hoop positioned correctly throughout the day. This is the everyday hoop for the person who wants their earrings to do the talking - quietly, confidently, and consistently.
