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 single style of hoop earring, sold as a pair. Instead of a flat, thin ring, the outer face is domed, so the hoop reads as a rounded, solid band with a high-polish mirror finish that throws light across its curve. Made in 316L stainless steel with a gold-tone finish and a hinged closure.



Overview
These are a single style of hoop earring, not a mixed set. The shape is what sets them apart: instead of a flat, thin hoop, the outer face is domed, so the hoop reads as a rounded, solid band with a high-polish mirror finish that throws light across its curve. They are worn through the lobe with a hinged closure, and the pair is sold as one design.
A chunky, polished hoop is a piece that turns on sight, so it suits a display where the finish does the selling. The earrings are made in 316L stainless steel, the grade family also sold as SUS316L and the grade specified for surgical implants, and the gold is an electroplated gold tone over the steel; plating thickness is quoted per micron. As 316L does not tarnish and stays hypoallergenic for most wearers, they hold up to daily wear.

Materials
| Option | What it means |
|---|---|
| 316L stainless steel | The earrings are 316L stainless steel, the grade family also sold as SUS316L and the grade specified for surgical implants; it is a marine-grade alloy with molybdenum at roughly 2-3% and chromium at 16-18%. That is why they do not tarnish and are hypoallergenic for most wearers. We name the grade rather than calling it a vague 'surgical steel'. |
| Domed, high-polish face | The outer face is domed rather than flat, so the hoop reads as a rounded band; the mirror polish is what gives it its reflection. |
| Gold tone (electroplated) | Electroplated gold over the steel, quoted per micron; a steel-tone finish is available on request. |
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 chunky polished hoop is a daily-wear piece that also reads as a small statement.
A single clean shape turns easily on a small display.
Sits beside your existing hoop and huggie lines as a heavier option.
