Oh, those hoop earrings! They are timeless, adored by women around the world, ear decorations. For this reason, for many ladies, they are a must-have pair in a jewelry box. Their shape fits not only into the popular recently geometric jewelry trends, but also very fashionable – lavishly decorated. As a consequence, they no longer resemble classic minimalist hoops. Due to the great popularity of the ear hoops, they are designed in various sizes, thicknesses and fancy variants. They can be found in wide, textured versions, with different fasteners, as well as in as a double or triple versions. Thus, hoops represent a wide range of earrings in various styles, which are created on hoop earring findings, which we present in this post.
Hoop earring findings
The sort of hoops is also noteworthy, which allows them to be used as final products and hoops for jewelry making. This feature has not gone unnoticed by jewelry designers who use them to add pendants or attach other jewellery making supplies to them. Thus, they create a new jewelry trend, in which one of the distinguishing features are hoop earrings or a single hoop earring richly decorated. We started this topic in the first part describing different types of hoop earrings, in which we inspire to create them with one of the most fashionable decorations, which are pearls. In this part of the article, we encourage you to design hoop earrings with stones, zircons, crystals and beads, which captivate with their beauty and perfectly complement spring and summer outfits.
Creative concepts for hoop earrings with stone pendants require hoops as bases, which is why 925CRAFT, as jewelry findings wholesaler and manufacturer, has the privilege to present various types of hoop earrings. In our stock, you will find:
Jewellery making hoop earrings for zircons and crystals
Sparkle silver hoop earrings with zircons or crystals are an offer for lovers of jewellery full of glitter. This is one of the most popular styles of this kind of ear accessories. Most of the hoop designs available on the market contain small and numerous zircons, mounted in the rim. On the other hand, we offer a version with a one or several zircon pendants. For such a project, you can use thin, silver wire earrings and a round zircon pendant. In the case of a concept containing several such pendants, arranged one after the other, it is worth using the jumprings to extend them, so that they do not cover each other, but create a beautiful pair of cascade earrings. Wire hoop earrings are also available as gold or gold plated hoops.
Other shapes and colors of cubic zirconia
If someone has an idea to use other colour or shape of zircons, we also offer models of ready-made pendants with colored zirconia and silver findings for crimping, which are in the category of snap settings. For example, square zirconia can be connected with each other with jump rings, creating long pendants. As bases for them, you can use earring settings in the form of huggie hoops, which together will compose impressive silver cubic zirconia hoop earrings. The inconspicuous size of the silver hoops is complemented by the charm of shiny and expressive decorations that perfectly match the current jewelry trends.
As we remain on the topic of hoop earrings with pendants, we also recommend any other pair from hoops for earring making that works well as a base. Instead of ear huggies, you can use double hoop earrings on studs, plain silver hoop earrings or silver half hoop earrings. With several types of earring hoop findings to choose from, you can create a rich collection of phenomenal ear ornaments in which the dominant shape is a harmonious circle for any occasion. It will certainly appeal to many women.
You can also compose an elegant version of earring hoops representing silver crystal hoop earrings. As a shop with jewelry making supplies, we offer these beautiful decorations in several colours, styles and cuts. You can choose from crystal heart pendants and pear pendants, bicone beads, chatons, rosecut and rivoli, which can be pasted into a dedicated silver set and hung to a selected piece. The GAVBARI collection includes transparent, aurore boreale (AB) and colored models, thanks to which you can make original designs. Due to the shimmering accent, the jewellery acquires charm and a chic character, which can be complemented by both stylizations for evening outings and work.
Crystal hoops with bicone beads
Impressively shiny hoop earrings with crystal pendant can be created with bicone beads. GAVBARI bicone crystals in our stock, have an AB effect, just like pear crystal ab, heart pendant and rivoli crystals. This effect, since it was patented by Swarovski and shown to the world in Christian Dior designs, delights with reflections in the colours of the northern lights, from which its name comes. Due to the small through hole, the crystals can be used in the form of pendants, for which silver pins will be helpful. These jewelry findings are finished with a ball, which becomes an elegant and subtle finish of pendants made of smaller beads. In the case of a 1 cm bicone, jewelry pins with a larger ball will be more suitable, which will effectively block the crystals.
How to make hoop earrings with crystals
Depending on the concept of earrings design, you will need different jewellery making supplies. Appropriate components will be both endless sterling silver hoop earrings or double hoops, as well as semi-circles and hinged hoop earrings. On the other hand, crystal decorations can be created from a series of beads, attached one after the other, or a single long pendant, with beads threaded on pins – connected directly to the selected pair of earring findings. To do this, you need to leave a free section of the pin about 1 cm long to form it into a loop, to be attached to the silver or gold hoops. You can also use jumprings, paying attention to their inner diameter, which must be larger than the thickness of the selected hoop earrings.
If the earrings ideas provide for the attachment of a series of crystals, you can diversify the entire decoration by separating them with spacers – simple as silver balls or more fancy, which you will find in the category of decorative elements. If you choose half hoop earrings, then for projects with several crystals, models with ball ends will be more practical, which are designed to prevent the pendants from slipping.
More advanced jewelry makers can use the soldering technique and attach several dangling rings to the earring to achieve the desired effect. In order to enable the implementation of such earring inspiration, as a jewelry wholesaler, we also offer silver soldering wire.
On the other hand, the choice of a small hoop earrings with a loop narrows down the possibilities of arranging decorations with crystals in a way, because you can basically hang only one pendant. However, it can be greatly extended by using additional earring connectors. These components will allow you to create rich decorations such as a pair of chandelier earrings. We present them below in the pictures. Due to their decorative nature, they perfectly fit into jewelry trends that emphasize expressiveness and magnificence. That is why it is worth focusing on designs that will meet the expectations of customers.
Crystal earrings making supplies
In addition to GAVBARI bicone beads, we also recommend GAVBARI crystal pendants for making hoop drop earrings, which we offer in a transparent version and with an AB effect. Due to their size and completely different shape and method of assembly, they give a slightly different style to the earrings. For many of these types of pendants, it is worth choosing settings with safer earring fastening mechanism such as leverback hoop earrings, so they do not open up under the weight of the attached details. The pendants can be connected to with help of jump rings or, more impressively – with jewelry bails.
To create charming hoop earrings with crystals, you can choose a beautiful crystal heart or pear AB pendant. Due to this effect, you will get a shine with intense colors of the northern lights. On the other hand, for those who love a flash with more subtle rainbow colors, we suggest designing a pair of earrings with a clear pear pendant. The faceted surface of the crystals makes a beautiful play of light, and the additional aspect of the swinging of the pendant multiplies the effective reflections. If the goal of the project is to achieve a more intense glow, then you will achieve in earrings richly decorated with crystals, which are the answer to what the jewellery trends bring.
Stud hoops for crystals
When creating circle earrings with crystals, other proposals of silver semi-finished products for them are worth considering – in the form of mini hoop earrings for small crystals and hoop earrings with chain. Inconspicuous studs can be made into expressive, elegant jewellery by attaching short chains to them with the use of jump rings. Among them, you can choose models for hanging or clamping stones, creating spectacular earrings with a crystal sparkle. If longer chains are needed for this type of project, we recommend our bulk chains, available in a separate product category.
Hoop earrings with crystals can also be composed on the second of the proposed semi-finished products – a hoop on a chain. This element can be put on stud earrings at the back or front of the ear, blocking it with earrings clasps or plugs. This hoop gives excellent possibilities for attaching shiny elements, such as bicone crystals, as well as hearts and pear pendants. Jewelry pins, jumprings or bails can be used for connections. To keep the earrings in the style of circles, a good choice will be to hang these jewelry findings on the pair of high quality sterling silver hoops.
But if you need shiny elements to be the dominant motif in this project, we suggest using studs for crystals or zircon hoop earrings. When you decide to choose studs for rivoli in a specific size, you will also find analogous pendants for crystals. They can be used to decorate the rings hanging on the chain, thanks to which all the decorative elements will be in harmony with each other. The availability of jewellery making supplies in individual product categories is possible due to the business concept of 925CRAFT as a manufacturer of silver and gold findings. Therefore, any designer can make whole jewellery sets
Hoop earrings in harmony with natural stones
Silver hoop earrings also look great with natural stones, which add a pinch of charm to the colours of nature. There are no obstacles to compose them in a similar way as with crystals, because we offer the same styles of GAVBARI pendants made of semi precious stones, as well as many others. Due to the wide assortment of 925CRAFT gold and silver hoop earrings, and the possibilities of human imagination, you can create various sophisticated compositions. By offering these jewelry and findings, we want to inspire you to create chandelier earrings. In this type of project, three popular trends meet: sumptuous and rich decoration of earrings, their cut – circles and natural stones, expressing interest in nature.
How to make earrings resembling chandeliers
Silver chandelier earrings add the hoop earrings with gems a special sophistication. To implement them, it is worth using high quality dedicated silver findings. They are elegant connectors between hoops or other earring settings, stone pendants or other details. They allow attaching several pendants at the same time, which result in a chandelier design. The style of these elements includes openwork, which adds even more charm to the jewellery. These types of connectors are very decorative, which is why, together with the pendants, they add a unique charm to the entire accessory.
For chandelier earrings, we also offer a slightly different style of the pendant – an openwork earring connector. It has a single loop for one pendant, but due to its shape you can experiment and connect it with three pendants at the same time.
The earring hoop with five loops also differs in design from the openwork models, but it fits perfectly with the fashionable style of the round earrings. It gives the possibility of attaching several pendants and will be great as a base for decorations in the style of a chandelier.
The charm of natural stones
Natural stones that we offer have beautiful colours, from subdued to intense and saturated. Their undoubted charm is their origin from the layers of the earth, in which they have been formed for thousands of years. As a result of this process, we can now enjoy the diversity of minerals, their optical effects, properties and assigned meaning. This diversity is perfectly used by jewelry makers, composing sophisticated types of earrings with natural stones.
For many lovers of jewelry accessories, it is not indifferent what kind of stone they wear. Therefore, we are expanding our offer of semi-precious stones with new minerals and styles, wanting to make it as attractive as possible. These multi-colour details, mounted on the above-presented connectors and round earrings findings, will help you to create phenomenal, eye-catching charm earrings, perfectly matching jewelry trends, emphasizing the decorativeness and splendor of ear accessories.
Different types of earrings with stone pendants
For long hoop earrings, the right choice will be moonstone pendant, which will slim the earring pattern thanks to its shape. On the other hand, silver hoop earrings with hearts and teardrop stones will look beautiful in shorter projects. Stone pendants can be attached to silver connectors in the type of chandeliers with the help of jump rings.
The design of the chandelier earrings will be emphasized even more by the chains as an extension of the pendants made of stones. For this purpose, you can use strands from the category by the meter or ready-made short chains that significantly improve the work. Many pieces consist of crimping or hanging parts, dedicated to stones and crystals.
Round settings for earrings in the chandelier type
Chandelier-style pendant connectors can be used by assembling them on a variety of hoop earrings. Among our proposals for round bases for earrings, there are thick silver hoop earrings with a clasp or big hoop earrings attached to leverbacks. Additional phenomenal, in addition to the chandelier decoration, is added to these projects in the first case by the greater thickness of the earring setting, and in the second by the large diameter of the hoop. Remember, that when choosing this type of hoop earrings charm, you will need larger jump rings. The proposed earring hoops have a mechanical clasp, which is important in the case of heavier pendants. It prevents the earring fastening from parting under the weight of the decorations, which is theoretically possible in classic version of thin hoop earrings.
Instead of leverback earring hooks, you can opt for silver hinged hoop earrings, creole hoops earrings, clip on hoop earrings or square hoop earrings. If we care about a larger diameter, the 45 mm model is a good choice. Large hoop earrings are one of the distinguishing features of the upcoming jewelry trends, so it’s worth designing ear jewelry sought after by customers. It is worth to mention that the largest models can be found among the classic silver and solid gold earrings hoops. Each cut from the presented round earring findings will create a different style of the accessory, giving a different aesthetic experience.
Colorful hoop earrings – settings for gem beads
Hoop earrings with colorful gemstones look charming, add color to the face and emphasize the colour of the eyes. They also perfectly fit into the “dopamine dressing” style, which is characterized by vivid shades, with the dominance of pink, yellow, orange, red and green. If someone does not like this fashion or does not feel comfortable enough to wear clothes in such colours, they can complement their outfits with colorful jewellery. And GAVBARI gems are perfect to create stunning, multi-colored hoop earrings. If you are looking for colorful hoop earrings, we also suggest enamel hoops which are available as yellow, neon pink, light green, light blue, light purple, turquoise, white and black hoop earrings.
All the models of hoop earring findings offered in this article are great for implementing bead projects in various styles. This variety is the result of different ways of making and attaching the bead decoration. This is due to the fact that some beads in our offer have a very small hole, and therefore they can only be threaded on pins or wires. Other models, have a large through hole, thanks to which they can be threaded even on thick hoop earrings. Below are our suggestions on how to use 925CRAFT findings to make hoop earrings with beads.
Cluster earrings
To create hoop earrings with a cluster pendant, we offer a special silver pendant with loops. It allows you to quickly and efficiently make a cluster decoration, which can be hung on a selected round earring settings, such as wide silver hoop earrings, and your jewellery is ready. For this type of projects, we offer semi precious beads, cubes and gemstone beads. All of these bead designs require the use of pins or wire, if they are to be used as hoop embellishments. You will find the right type and thickness of a pin or wire through the filters of the search engine. For ruby, emerald and sapphire beads, due to the small hole, we recommend 0.40 mm jewelry pins.
Chain pendant with beads
You can also make a pendant with beads on a rolo chain, or the links of which beads strung on pins are attached. The pendant can be given the form and length you would love. It can be a cluster, cascade or a solo pendant. Depending on the number of chain sections used and the shapes of the beads, we will get a different shape and visual effect. Single beads attached to the ends of chains of different lengths will also look beautiful. Beads can also be replaced with fashionable pearls or crystals. You can read about hoop earrings with crystals above. If you look for inspirations for pearl hoop earrings, read the first part of our article about silver hoop earrings in a new version. Due to the chicness of pearls and crystals, such designs can be successfully considered as wedding earrings.
Hoop earrings with threaded silver beads and stones
Natural stone beads are also used to decorate hoop earrings by threading them onto a hoop. For such designs, you need beads with a larger hole. Among the styles in our offer, this condition is met by donut stones. Some can even be put on thick hoop earring findings. When deciding on such a decoration of the circles, you can also choose other types of earring findings, such as endless hoops or wire hoops. By threading donut beads on them, you can easily make hoop earrings with stones, without having any experience in jewelry making.
Beads are not only made of minerals. Our assortment also includes models made of 925 silver, which you will find in the category of decorative elements and the category of pendants. They act as separators, decorations and personalization. The latter function is perfectly fulfilled by silver letter beads, which personalize the hoops in a very attractive way. Their size allows you to create a short text that can be separated with additional charms, which are still among the top jewelry decorations.
To sum up, silver hoop earrings in a new version offer great opportunities to create multi-colored decorations that satisfy our sense of beauty. It would seem that such designs are perfect for light spring and summer outfits, but they also match a subdued autumn-winter wardrobe. All 925CRAFT silver findings are nickel free, so hypoallergenic hoop earrings are a great proposition for making children hoop earrings. The majority of designs are mostly ready-made jewellery, which is additionally available in several galvanic coating options. Due to the fashionable asymmetry, combining earrings in different styles and mixing the colours of the covering, it is worth experimenting by composing phenomenal hoop earrings or a single, but extravagant solo earring.
