Match the hoop to the job. 10 to 15 mm sits close to the lobe and works every day. 25 mm, about an inch, is the classic that suits nearly everyone. 40 mm and up is a statement that changes an outfit. If it is your first pair, start at an inch; it is the size people come back and rebuy.

Heavier diamond pairs are better saved for days that deserve them, mostly to protect the setting from knocks. Solid gold handles daily wear best; gold-plated pairs last longest when they skip showers and workouts.

Usually, yes. Bent hoops, loose hinges and broken clasps are common repairs, and Perrara works with a master goldsmith who takes outside work as well as our own pieces. Bring the pair in, or message us a photo and we will tell you honestly whether it is worth fixing.
