Huggie Hoop Earrings
316L stainless steel huggie hoops that hug the lobe. Tarnish-free, waterproof and light enough for all-day wear, with a hinge that keeps its snap.
Stainless Steel Earrings · Stainless Steel · MOQ 50 pcs
Small hinged hoops, each hung with a small cubic zirconia drop: round, oval, pear, cushion and marquise among the shapes. Made in 316L steel and gold-tone steel, several pairs to a listing and quoted per pair.



Overview
This is a listing of small hinged hoops, each finished with a single cubic zirconia drop, so one order covers a whole run of shapes rather than one. The hoops are small enough to sit close to the lobe — the size a customer wears in a second or third piercing — and the drop is what changes from design to design: a round, an oval, a pear, a cushion and a marquise among them.
Grouping the shapes into one listing is the point: a buyer can take a full row of drops in one order and one finish, rather than buying each shape as a separate line and reconciling the minimums. This listing contains several pairs; each pair is quoted on its own line, so a mixed order is normal. Both the hoop and the drop are steel under the plating, so they are a sensible option for customers who react to base metals.

Materials
| Option | What it means |
|---|---|
| 316L stainless steel | The hoops, hinge and drop settings are 316L, so they do not tarnish and suit sensitive lobes. |
| Cubic zirconia | Small CZ drops, consistent in colour, so a run matches across the listing. |
| 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
Sized for a second or third piercing, worn in twos and threes.
Several shapes from one listing build a full small-hoop section.
A small hoop with a colourless drop reads as an easy gift.
