Jewellery Care Guide
Jewellery Care Guide
Sterling Silver: Gently polish with a soft jewellery cloth to maintain shine. Silver Care Guide →
Solid Gold (9ct, 14ct, 18ct): Solid gold will not tarnish or peel, but it can gather oils and dust. Soak in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, then gently scrub with a soft toothbrush to restore its brilliance.
18ct Gold Plate: Avoid water, perfumes, and lotions to preserve the gold layer. Gold Plate Care Guide →
Bronze: Over time, bronze develops a unique vintage patina. Polish to restore brightness or leave to age naturally. Bronze Care Guide →
Gemstones: Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or ultrasonic cleaners.

Questions & Fit Guide
Which size should I choose?
- 13mm hoops: Minimal, close-fitting fit. Ideal for main lobes, second/third piercings, or a snug daily stack.
- 14mm hoops: Slightly wider profile with a little more presence. Great for main lobes or carrying drop charms.
Can I add charms to these hoops?
Yes. Both sizes are designed to thread easily with small removable charms (like our Plum Blossom or Leaf charms), letting you switch between minimal daily wear and detailed occasion styling.
Are they comfortable for everyday wear?
At under 1.5g per earring, both sizes are lightweight and unobtrusive enough for all-day comfort and daily wear.
How do I care for silver vs. gold?
- 9ct Gold: Holds its warm lustre naturally with minimal care and won't tarnish.
- Sterling Silver: Naturally oxidises over time. A quick pass with a polishing cloth instantly brightens the raised textures.
Styling & Inspiration
- Mixed-Metal Stack: Pair a 14mm sterling silver hoop in your lower piercing with a 13mm 9ct gold hoop right above it.
- Simple Gold Foundation: Wear the 13mm 9ct gold hoops solo for an effortless, warm daily look.
- Charm Convertible: Thread a charm onto one or both hoops to transform your setup in seconds.
