How Much is a Hoop And Dangle Earring?

Finding the Right earrings for You

In the United States, ear piercing didn’t really become popular until the 1950s and ‘60s, but our desire for a dazzling pair of vintage earrings has deeper roots than that. In fact, wearing earrings actually goes back thousands of years, and you can find many tangible connections between now and then in how we continue to talk about these treasured accessories.

Women wore ornamental earrings — studs and hoops at the very least — in Ancient Egypt, which is home to mines that are among the earliest sources of emeralds in the world. Emerald earrings are highly prized today, and their quality lies in their rich, saturated color. The highest-quality emeralds are green or bluish-green. Earrings worn by the affluent in early Roman civilizations were set with precious stones such as diamonds and pearls, and a clean-looking pop of pearl on the front of the lobe is as timeless as ever. Hoop earrings are imbued with symbolism and cultural significance for many, and on view in the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Ancient Near Eastern Art Gallery is a pair of simple gold hoops from Mesopotamia dating to between 2600 and 2500 B.C.

Today, ear piercing is very popular all over the world, and, as a result, it is difficult to overstate how much everyone pines for a good pair of earrings — modernist drop earrings, glamorous Victorian hoops, geometrically complex chandelier earrings, you name it. Sure, jewelry trends and the fashion darlings of social media come and go, but earrings have a staying power that seems impenetrable: The still-strong love affair between British royals and Cartier earrings is more than a century old, glossy 1970s hoops from legacy houses such as Bulgari and Van Cleef & Arpels remain the statement makers they’ve always been and although people have been stacking earrings for many moons, the allure of an expertly mismatched stack of charms and studs still feels fresh and new.

While there is no shortage of modern earring designs to choose from, the classics, like coral earrings, Art Deco–style earrings and diamond drop earrings are still heavy hitters. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of antique, new and vintage earrings today.

Questions About Hoop And Dangle Earring
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    A dangle earring is an earring that hangs below the earlobe. The length, style or material of an dangle earring can vary.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2023
    What dangle earrings symbolize is a matter of interpretation. Some people believe that dangle earrings are symbols of femininity due to the way they swing and sway, but others don't assign any special meaning to them. Earrings in specific shapes have meaning as well. For example, cross earrings may represent a person's religious faith, while four-leaf clovers may be associated with good luck. On 1stDibs, explore a large selection of dangle earrings.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2023
    Dangling earrings are typically just called dangle earrings. Some people may also refer to their backings when saying the names of dangle earrings. For example, fish hook dangle earrings hang from curved wires, while lever-back dangle earrings have a hinged closure that latches shut for added security. Explore a large collection of dangle earrings on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023
    Yes, dangling earrings can be professional. Some people feel that earrings in the workplace should hang no more than 0.5 to 0.75 inches below the ear to prevent distractions, so longer earrings may not be suitable for pairing with workwear. Consider the standards for attire at your place of business when selecting your earrings, as dress codes vary from organization to organization. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of dangle earrings.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2023
    No, drop and dangle earrings are not the same. Although both types of earrings hang below the ear, their designs are different. Dangle earrings swing when you move, while drop earrings remain stationary. On 1stDibs, find a diverse assortment of dangle and drop earrings from some of the world's top dealers.
  • 1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023
    Dangling earrings are attractive for a variety of reasons. Also called dangle earrings, they draw the eye downward and can help to visually lengthen the face and neck. Many people also find the swinging movement of dangle earrings to be playful or alluring. Dangle earrings come in many sizes, styles and materials, giving you many options to consider. On 1stDibs, shop a large selection of dangle earrings.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023
    Yes, dangling earrings can be good options. An understated pair of dangle earrings can be suitable for work or worn to dress up a casual outfit like jeans and a sweater. Larger dangle earrings can make a dramatic statement for a special occasion or an evening out. It's a good idea to remove dangle earrings before active activities like sports and workouts because they could get caught on something. Shop a wide range of dangle earrings on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023
    No, hoop earrings are not outdated. In fact, it is almost impossible to overstate how popular hoop earrings are today. They are routinely seen adorning the ears of high-profile women, ranging from Michelle Obama and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to Jennifer Lopez and Cardi B. For the Spring 2019 collections, statement hoops showed up in the runway shows of Valentino, Sonia Rykiel and Loewe, among many others. Find hoop earrings on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023
    C hoop earrings are hoops with a specific design. Unlike circular hoops, they have a distinctive C shape. At the top of the C is usually a post that slips into your ear piercing and is secured by a backing. The bottom end of the C usually hits behind or below the ear, depending on the size of the earrings. Shop a large collection of hoop earrings on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 27, 2023
    Creole hoop earrings are round earrings with a certain design. Their name comes from the tradition of their wear by women of African descent in the Caribbean and New Orleans, giving them another name: New Orleans hoops. Unlike other hoops that are of uniform thickness from end to end, Creole hoops vary in thickness. Most are thinner at the ends and thickest along the bottom part that hangs below the ear. On 1stDibs, shop a range of Creole hoop earrings.
  • 1stDibs ExpertDecember 12, 2023
    How thick hoop earrings should be depends on your personal preferences. Thickness will impact how hoops feel and look. Many people find small, thick huggie hoop earrings to be comfortable and versatile enough for everyday wear. Large, thick hoops are often reserved for nights out or special occasions, as their size can make them heavy. If you're looking for infinity hoops that are free of posts and wires, consider the diameter of your piercing when comparing thicknesses. Because these earrings slide through the ear, the thickest ones may not fit some piercings. Shop a diverse assortment of hoop earrings on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023
