Fabulous Vintage 9ct Creole Hoops
I adore a good creole hoop. They instantly make me feel happy when I have a pair in my ears, whether they are teeny weenies, massive ones, or perfect in the middle ones like this pair. SO much detail, all the shapes, triangles and little balls, spikes and curves, there is a reason they have stuck around so long (antique ones are pretty hard to find, but I have had them).
For some they will be party hoops, for some, more every day, but however you wear them, they are a wonderful classic which will remain super cool for generations to come.
