Elegant pearl hoop earrings women love
Pearl hoops are not just any pretty jewellery that you love wearing, it is a powerful statement of a bold, unstoppable woman. Tasteful yet playful, pearl hoops can be worn as a single or a pair in small, medium or large sizes for a head-turning effect.
Types of pearls in hoop earrings
Real pearls are named after their exotic places of origin. They may be natural or cultured. Natural pearls are extremely rare and not commercially viable. Pearls used in designer hoops are usually cultured (created by human intervention to start off the process) and the most common types are Akoya, Tahitian, Southsea, and freshwater pearls.
Most premium quality pearl hoop earrings feature organic, sustainable pearls in an extraordinary range of sizes, colours and shapes. Pearls in earrings come in two primary shapes: traditional or round pearls are considered more valuable, while baroque pearls in asymmetric shapes and sizes add character to the hoops.
Freshwater pearl hoop earrings
Freshwater pearl hoops use the most affordable variety of pearls. Cultured in freshwater ponds and lakes, these are easily available in impressive shapes and colours. You will find earrings in natural colours like white, pink and other light, pastel colours, or in dyed shades for more colourful pearl hoops. The organically abstract shapes make each pearl hoop earring a sculptural art piece.
Japanese Akoya pearl hoops
If you want to bask in the glorious splendour of shiny hoops with perfectly shaped, affordable pearls, you’ve found the perfect treasure. Usually available as white pearl hoops, Akoya pearls are picture-perfect freshwater pearls. Also called classic pearls, they are small and round and lend a sophisticated touch to the hoop earrings.
Tahitian pearl hoops
Gorgeous Tahitian pearl hoops stand out for their large pearls. An assortment of unusual colours - greens, browns, greys, black, silver, and blues - elevates the charm of this saltwater pearl earring. Particularly sought after are the green peacock-coloured Tahitian pearl hoops.
South Sea pearl hoops
Incredibly valuable, South Sea pearls, or Queen of Pearls, are the most luxurious, rare, and lustrous among cultured pearls. The ones used in pearl hoops are large and come in a shimmering spectrum of white and gold. The golden pearl hoops are more expensive.
Pearl hoop earring designs
There are endless style possibilities for pearl hoops. You can opt for lustrous yellow gold, cool white gold or rhodium-plated silver, or feminine rose gold. Or go for the serene metallic tones of sterling silver. For more affordable hoops, choose from the gold-filled, vermeil and gold-plated silver variety.
Hoop earrings sizes can range from cute mini sizes to large, bold, dramatic ones, available as slim, chunky, twisted or sculptural pearl hoops. Here are a few of our favourite options for styling.

Pearl hoops with pendants
As the name suggests, these hoops feature pearl pendants that hang gracefully from gold and silver hoops. Adding allure and charm, these hoops feature a riveting pearl, a cluster of pearls, or pearls arranged in a single vertical line.
Pearls hoops with gemstones
Colourful gemstones add a layer of glamour when combined with pearls. Though most stones look sleek with pearls, colourful zirconia is the most fashionable choice while diamonds are the most luxurious.
Baroque pearl hoops
Baroque pearls are large and uniquely shaped. This unique style features asymmetrical hoops nestled with a large baroque pearl.
Hoops set with a ring of pearls
Whether a striking single pearl or a lustrous ring of pearls embellishing the metal frame, this style is as authentic as it gets. You can wear it on the earlobe or anywhere on the outer lobe of the ear.
Caring for pearl hoops
It’s essential to clean and store pearl hoops carefully. Here are some tips to keep them in pristine condition.
♥ Wear your pearls often. Storing them can cause the pearls to dry out.
♥ Use perfumes or hair sprays before you wear pearl hoops.
♥ Don't forget to wipe off chemicals or perspiration lingering on the pearl hoops with a soft cloth before putting them away.
♥ Place pearl hoops in soft jewellery bags or tissue. Pearls are vulnerable to scratches and can get damaged if mixed with other gemstone jewellery.
♥ To avoid damage to your pearls, let a certified jeweller look into repairing your pearl hoops instead of doing it yourself.
