Gold PVD Hoop Earrings
18K gold PVD hoop earrings in 316L stainless steel. The vacuum-bonded coating is hard and even, and the steel core will not tarnish or irritate — a hoop for daily wear.
Stainless Steel Earrings · Stainless Steel · MOQ 50 pcs
A thicker hoop that opens on a hinge: round, squared, heart and star shapes, each fronted with a row of square-set cubic zirconia. Made in 316L steel and gold-tone steel, several pairs to a listing and quoted per pair.



Overview
These are a step up from the thin everyday hoop. The tube is heavier, so each piece has real weight in the hand, and the front carries a channel of square-set cubic zirconia running with the shape — a row of princess-cut stones rather than a single stone. That is what reads as the difference at arm's length: a solid, deliberate hoop rather than a delicate one.
The design is built on a hinged opening, so it clicks closed and opens wide enough to sit flush against the lobe. The listing runs a family of shapes — round, squared, heart and star — all on the same hinge and the same chunky tube, so a display can be built around one construction. This listing contains several pairs, and it is quoted per pair.

Materials
| Option | What it means |
|---|---|
| 316L stainless steel | The hoop and hinge are 316L, so they do not tarnish and suit sensitive lobes. |
| Cubic zirconia | Square-cut CZ set in a channel along the front; consistent in colour across a run. |
| Gold tone | Electroplated gold over steel; plating thickness is quoted per micron. |
316L
Every design on this page is made in 316L stainless steel — the molybdenum-bearing austenitic grade, and the same grade specified for surgical implants and marine fittings. The “L” is low carbon, which is what keeps chain links and hollow forms sound at the joins.
Grades are worth stating rather than implying, because 316L, 304 and 201 look identical in a photograph and differ by real money per tonne. We name the grade on every design. If your market needs documentation with the goods, tell us and we will confirm what is available on this design before you order.
| Property | 316L stainless steel |
|---|---|
| Designation | 316L (AISI/ASTM) · SUS316L under JIS · 1.4404 under EN |
| Composition | Chromium 16–18%, nickel 10–14%, molybdenum 2–3%, carbon 0.03% max |
| Why 316L and not 304 or 201 | Molybdenum is what resists chlorides, and neither of the cheaper grades contains any |
| Tarnish and rust | Does not tarnish, and does not rust from everyday wear, sweat or water |
| Skin | Hypoallergenic for most wearers, and not nickel-free — it contains 10–14% nickel by specification |
| Specified for | Surgical implants (ASTM F138) and marine fittings, which is where the “surgical” and “marine grade” labels come from |
Best for
A heavier hoop that reads as a considered piece rather than a basic.
Four shapes from one listing build a full chunky-hoop section.
The square stones and the shapes give it enough presence for a gift.
