These aren't your typical thin hoops. They’re built with a noticeable thickness that gives them a solid, rounded profile. From the side, they look less like a circle and more like a crescent of polished gold, which means they hug the earlobe closely.
You're looking at a pair of small, thick hoop earrings. The body is a wide, hollow tube of gold that's fatter at the base and tapers up toward the hinge. They have a high-polish finish, so you can see the clean, unbroken lines of light reflecting off the surface. The closure is a simple, thin post that passes through your ear and clicks securely into a fork-shaped catch on the other side.
We make these from solid 14 karat gold, not plated or filled. That's 58.3% pure gold alloyed with other metals like copper and zinc to make it stronger. Which means they're durable enough to handle daily life without you having to worry about denting or scratching them easily. The colour is that classic, warm yellow that gold is known for. And because it’s solid through-and-through, the colour will never fade or wear away. It's also a great material if you have sensitive ears.

People pick these when they want the chunky look without the size. They give you that satisfying, solid gold presence, but they're small enough to sit neatly on the lobe instead of dangling. They feel substantial without being heavy, making them a comfortable, everyday version of a bold hoop.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will these 14k gold chunky hoops feel heavy on my ears all day?
No, they're designed to be comfortable for all-day wear. While they have a thick, substantial look, they're constructed to be surprisingly lightweight. You'll feel their presence, but they shouldn't pull on your earlobes or become uncomfortable, even after wearing them for hours.
Can I shower or sleep while wearing my Small Chunky Hoop Earrings?
Yes, you can. Because they're solid 14k gold, they won't tarnish or be damaged by water. We do suggest taking them out before sleeping, though, just to avoid accidentally bending the post or having them catch on your bedding, which helps them keep their perfect shape.
How will these 1.8 cm chunky hoops fit on a second or third earlobe piercing?
These hoops will likely fit snugly in a second or third piercing, depending on your ear's anatomy. Their 1.8 cm diameter is compact, but the 8 mm thickness takes up space. For most people, they work best in the first lobe piercing to allow for their full, rounded shape.
What happens if I receive the Small Chunky Hoop Earrings and they aren't what I expected?
You can return them within 30 days for a full refund. Just email us at returns@vanhess.ca, and we'll send you a prepaid shipping label. The only thing we ask is that the earrings are in their original, unworn condition for the return to be processed.
