Hoop Dreams

Dominique Aurientis has taken the classic hoop earring and put a modern twist on it. Below are two fine examples of what hoop earring can, and should be. The first is a flattened hoop that we affectionately call the "Pac-Man" hoop. The gold earring lies flat against the ear. The top side of the earrings is adorned with white and smoke glass pearls along with crystals surrounded by gold bead rim. The second pair of earrings is a classic hoop constructed from many small gold leaves. The leaves are covered with gold berries as well as clear, smoke and blue crystals.
