What is the Difference Between Huggie & Hoop Earrings?

One of the most common questions at our jewellery store is, "What is the difference between Huggie and hoop earrings?" The answer is actually quite simple. Huggie earrings are smaller and fit snugly against the earlobe, while hoop earrings are larger and circle around the entire ear.

 

Are Huggies Earrings Comfortable?

Gold huggie earrings are designed to be worn comfortably all day long. They are lightweight and sit close to the earlobe, so you won't even feel like you're wearing them. Of course, there are many factors to consider when finding the perfect pair of earrings. But if you're looking for something that is both comfortable and stylish, our Rounded Huggies are a great option. They're incredibly light, making them comfortable for everyday wear or even sleeping. And because they're designed to never fall out, they're especially ideal for those who often don't plan to take them off. Plus, they're made from 18ct Solid Gold, so you never have to worry about them going black or green.


Do Huggie Hoop Earrings Suit Everyone?

Yes, Huggies earrings suit everyone! They are the perfect choice for those with small or sensitive ears, as they are designed to sit close to the earlobe and are very lightweight. Plus, these hoop earrings come in a variety of styles and metals, so you can find a pair that suits your personal taste. So whether you're looking for something simple and understated or a bold and statement-making style, huggie earrings are perfect.


Do Huggies Earrings Come in Different Metal Colours?

Huggie earrings are available in various metal hues, yellow gold, white gold, and rose gold; however, 18ct yellow gold is the favourite.

What is the Difference Between Gold-plated (vermeil) & Solid Gold Huggies? 

When choosing the perfect pair of Huggies, it's essential to understand the difference between gold-plated and solid gold. Gold-plated Huggies are made from a base metal like silver or brass that is then coated with a thin layer of gold. 18ct Solid gold Huggies, on the other hand, are made entirely from pure gold. The 'CT' represents the percentage of solid gold in the alloy - 18ct solid gold has 75% pure gold, whereas 18ct Gold Vermeil has less than 0.0025% solid gold.

Solid gold is the way to go if you're looking for a pair of Huggies that will stand the test of time. Not only is it more durable, but it also has a luxurious feel that will make you feel confident and stylish every time you put them on.

While gold-plated Huggies may be less expensive, they are not as durable as solid gold and will eventually wear away, exposing the metal underneath. On the other hand, solid gold Huggies are made to last a lifetime.

We only use the highest quality 18ct solid gold in our jewellery. This means that your jewellery will never fade or tarnish and can be passed down for generations to come.
