Handmade Argentium Silver Sleeper Hoop Earrings
My handmade Argentium silver sleeper hoop earrings are both comfortable and practical. They are designed to be worn for long periods of time and are suitable for sleeping in.
​
Here's some more information about how to insert/remove them from your piercings and how to care for your earrings.
How are they made...
These little hoops are made from one piece of Argentium silver 940 wire (no hinges or awkward catches). They have been hammered to add a bit of sparkle. Argentium silver is 100% recycled, purer than sterling and less prone to tarnish. It's also hypoallergenic so is ideal for long term wear and for those with sensitivity to sterling.
How to open them...
To open the earrings gently twist the hoops sideways. Do not pull the ends apart lengthways at this will distort the shape and damage the earrings.
​
They just need a gentle side twist to create an opening wide enough to slip them through the piercing.
More on how to open...
This video shows the earrings being opened and closed. If you have any questions please drop me a message.
Two ways to wear them...
If you want the little lug to show insert the earrings via the front of a piercing. If you want the little lug to be hidden it is easier to insert them from the back of the piercing then twiddle them around so that the lug sits behind the ear lobe.
​
To clean them just polish with a soft cloth, do not use chemical cleaners.
