Description

Hollow, drawn over a former and closed along an invisible seam, which is why a hoop this size weighs almost nothing in the hand.

Green copper salts survive in two places — inside the lion’s collar and at the cut end — and we have left them. Removing them would take the surface with them.

An excavated piece, worn in antiquity as an ear hoop. We supply it on a stand; it is not fitted for a modern ear.

  1. L. Brandt (verified owner) –

    No complaints about the piece itself; delivery took a day longer than the estimate.

  2. J. Okafor (verified owner) –

    Bought for an anniversary. The finish is far better than anything I was shown in the chain shops at twice the price.

  3. A. Mensah (verified owner) –

    Beautiful piece and the box it arrives in is lovely. Half a star off because I had to email to ask about the chain length.

  4. K. Lindqvist (verified owner) –

    They talked me out of a more expensive piece because it was wrong for my hand. I have bought twice more since.

  5. M. Duarte (verified owner) –

    Exactly as described. It sits slightly higher on the collarbone than I expected — worth measuring first.
