14K Gold Huggie Earrings

What is a huggie earring?

A huggie is a small hoop, usually 10mm to 15mm across, that sits close to the lobe with a hinged closure. It is comfortable all day, stacks well in several piercings and looks polished on its own.

Choose your huggie

Plain for every day. Chunky, 4.3mm to 7.5mm wide, for a bolder look. Textured: ribbed, beaded, dotted, fluted or wavy. CZ pavé for sparkle. Shapes such as oval, rectangle and heart.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between huggies and hoops?
Huggies are small hoops, usually 10mm to 15mm, that sit snugly against the lobe. Hoops are larger and hang lower.

Are huggie earrings good for second piercings?
Yes. Their small size makes them a favorite for second and third lobe piercings and ear stacks.

Are these huggies real gold?
Yes. Every pair is 14K gold (58.5% pure gold), stamped 585 and never plated. Some are solid; others, like the chunky, fluted, textured and heart huggies, are semi-hollow: a thick gold wall around a small core, so they keep real weight and stay light on the lobe.
