Round Dainty Hoop Earrings
Round Dainty Hoop Earrings
The Brand: Carla Caruso, a RISD graduate, started her eponymous jewelry line in 2001. After studying and working in the field of glass sculpture, she found herself looking for a creative outlet that would also be continually inspiring as a business. She taught herself how to work in metal and there, she found a perfect fit. Carla still makes every piece by hand out of her studio in Ashfield, Massachusetts.
Description: All of Carla’s work is perfect for everyday wear. These nicely sized hoops are utterly plain and yet so wonderful. Lightweight and simple, they look great on everyone who tries them on. They are crafted from a single piece of wire that is hand tapered, shaped and hammered. They feature Carla’s signature closure with wrapped wire and a bead of gold on the end.
Details: recycled 14K gold, 1 3/4 inches in diameter, simple closure
A Note From Erika: This is a classic Carla Caruso piece—it’s a wonderful example of her take on something you see everywhere. The details here take this from just a “hoop” to something really special.
