Reflecting on the past, present, and future of hoop earrings, we ask the question; what do your hoops mean to you?
Hoops are a jewellery staple with ancient origins, a timeless style reimagined throughout eras, ages, and generations. With a history and symbolism reaching back to the first millennium, hoop earrings have developed a standalone fashion statement with an understated grace, charm, and sophistication.
Both contemporary and classic, hoops present a wearable style that has endured, existing throughout cultural movements and international communities. Reaching back to Nubia by way of ancient Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians, hoop earrings have a past wrapped up in an expansive cultural history, and a future rooted in the celebration of our individuality. We have designed these pieces with their history in mind, inspired by their beauty as well as their story.
Our Holly hoop is connected to a personal heritage, inspired by a delicate and antique gold hoop given to our founder’s daughter. The dimensions instantly aligned with our vision for a classic piece that encapsulates elegance, created in both a simple silver and an ageless gold.
The charm hoops are subtle and petite, designed with the space for additional charms to give you the freedom to express your individual style as it shifts and changes with the seasons. From the micro Obelisk and Malachite bullet to the lightning bolt and bejewelled star, we have a generous selection of delicate hand-crafted charms to mix, match, and complement your character.
The Punkahi earrings are a firm favourite within our Memara community, bringing a unique fan of hand-crafted rays to a graceful hoop. In a similar fashion, the Gemstone Hoop Studs add a touch of glamour to your wardrobe, embellished with green onyx, moonstone, blue or turquoise gemstones. What’s not to love?
We have recently introduced the Wavy hoops to the collection, a piece designed as an alternative rendition of a conventional hoop, ideal for those who like to go with the flow and embrace the push and pull of the tide.
We are constantly developing our collection to reflect what our community would like to see. Explore our curated selection of hoops designed with your individuality in mind here!
