Classic Cartilage Hoop

The 8mm internal diameter fits my cartilage perfectly without any pinching, and the 16g thickness feels sturdy enough that I don't worry about it bending. Honestly, it’s so lightweight I forget I’m wearing it by midday, which is exactly what I wanted from a minimalist hoop.

I was nervous about the 20g being too flimsy, but it holds its shape perfectly in my ear and the 8mm diameter sits just right against my lobe. The minimalist look is exactly what I wanted for everyday wear, and it hasn't irritated my skin at all.

Went with the 16g in 6mm and it's the right amount of presence without looking heavy. The hinge closes with a satisfying click and hasn't snagged on my hair once this week. Exactly the kind of simple piece I'll wear daily.
