✓ Waterproof ✓ Hypoallergenic ✓ Tarnish Free
Add texture to your piercing collection with this 16 Gauge Braided Hinged Hoop Ring. Made from durable 316L surgical steel with a detailed twisted finish, this compact 8mm hoop is available in Silver or Black.
✨ Why You’ll Love It
✓ Textured Braided Design: The twisted surface adds depth and detail while retaining the versatility of a classic circular hoop.
✓ Silver or Black: Choose polished Silver for a timeless finish or Black PVD for a darker, more contemporary look.
✓ Easy Hinged Closure: The integrated segment clicks securely into place without a separate ball or removable fastening.
💎 The Detail
Textured yet minimalist, this braided hoop is an easy way to add detail to a curated ear without crystals or decorative charms. The twisted design catches the light from different angles while remaining easy to coordinate with other jewellery.
The ring measures 16G (1.2mm) with an 8mm hoop diameter, creating a relatively close fit. It may suit helix, rook, daith, tragus, lobe and septum placements, depending on your anatomy and piercing position.
The 316L surgical steel construction is durable, water resistant and tarnish resistant. To help preserve the Black PVD finish, avoid harsh chemicals, perfumes and repeated friction, and ensure the hinged segment is fully clicked into place before wearing.

💡 Sizing Tip
Gauge numbers work in reverse — the lower the gauge number,
the thicker the jewellery.
Piercing sizes aren't one-size-fits-all. These recommendations describe common
uses for healed piercings and are not a guarantee of fit. Always consider the
jewellery design, your piercing placement and your individual anatomy. New or
healing piercings should be sized by a professional piercer.
