A pair of endless 14K yellow gold filled hoop earrings. The hoop earrings measure 14mm in diameter (approximately 1/2 inch) and are crafted with a thin 1.5mm gage wire. The huggie style earrings wrap around the ear and are great for today's delicate yet chic styles. The earrings are considered ""endless"" because instead of a snap down lock, the earrings feature a slide in post for an endless hoop effect. Unlike gold plating, gold filled jewelry is crafted with gold that constitutes at least 5% of the total item weight and will not fade or tarnish like plated jewelry often can. It can withstand heat and water over time.
