9CT GOLD 1.7MM HINGED HUGGIE HOOP EARRINGS
Christine Alexander Fine Jewellery
These are the earrings equivalent of a perfectly cut blazer: understated, sharp, and doing a frankly heroic amount of work for their size.
Meet my 9ct Yellow Gold flat hinged huggie hoops — small, sleek, and quietly excellent. Designed for people who like their jewellery subtle but intentional, these little beauties sit snugly against the ear and whisper “I have my life together” (even if you absolutely do not).
Crafted in solid 9ct Yellow Gold with a smooth, polished finish, they’re lightweight, comfortable, and endlessly wearable. No jangling. No snagging. No unnecessary drama. Just good, honest Gold doing what Gold does best.
Available in 8mm or 10mm internal diameter, with a neat 1.7mm width, they’re ideal for standard lobe piercings and also work beautifully in curated ear stacks — assuming, of course, your lobes are on the slimmer side. (More on that in a moment.)
The hinged huggie fitting opens and closes smoothly, so there are no fiddly backs to lose, no acrobatics required, and no swearing at mirrors.
✨ Important-but-kind FYI:
If you have thicker earlobes, these tiny hoops may not fit comfortably. Please check measurements carefully before purchasing — pierced jewellery is non-returnable for hygiene reasons, and while I’m very nice, I am also very clean.
The Gold Bit (Because This Matters)
These earrings are made from real 9ct Gold, stamped 375, meaning they are 37.5% pure Gold, alloyed for strength and everyday durability. All my 9ct Gold pieces comply with the UK Hallmarking Act — items under 1.0g are legally exempt from full hallmarking but are still guaranteed to be of the same fineness.
In short: yes, it’s real Gold. No, it’s not pretending.
Your hoops arrive presented in a fully recycled gift box, because elegance and responsibility can, in fact, coexist.

They’re practical. They’re chic. They’re jewellery that understands modern life.
