White Gold Hoop Earrings

White gold hoop earrings are typically made from a mixture of pure gold and other white metals, such as palladium or nickel, to give them a silvery-white appearance. They are often plated with rhodium for added shine and durability.

White gold hoop earrings can be hypoallergenic, especially if they are made with palladium rather than nickel. However, individuals with sensitive skin should opt for rhodium-plated earrings or specifically hypoallergenic versions.

To clean your white gold hoop earrings, use a mild soap and warm water solution. Gently scrub them with a soft brush and rinse thoroughly. Dry with a soft cloth. For deeper cleaning, take them to a professional jeweller who can reapply rhodium plating if needed.

Unlike rings, white gold hoop earrings generally cannot be resized. However, they come in various sizes and thicknesses to suit different preferences. If you need a different size, consider purchasing a new pair that fits your desired dimensions.

White gold hoop earrings are durable but may require occasional maintenance. Over time, the rhodium plating can wear off, revealing the gold beneath. Regular re-plating is recommended to keep them looking bright and lustrous.

Yes, white gold hoop earrings are suitable for daily wear. However, like any fine jewellery, it's advisable to remove them during heavy physical activities or when exposed to harsh chemicals to preserve their finish.

To check if your white gold hoop earrings are real, look for a hallmark stamp indicating the karat purity, such as 14K or 18K.

White gold hoop earrings come in a range of sizes, from small and dainty hoops that are perfect for everyday wear to large statement hoops for special occasions. They also vary in thickness, allowing you to choose a style that suits your taste.

White gold itself doesn’t tarnish, but the rhodium plating can wear off over time, leading to a yellowish tint. Regular re-plating can help maintain the original brightness and prevent discolouration.

White gold hoop earrings are made by alloying gold with white metals and plating them with rhodium, while platinum is a naturally white metal that doesn’t require plating. Platinum is more durable but also more expensive than white gold.
