What is it?

A pair of French "créoles" style gold hoops in buttery 18ct gold with a sunshine-like pattern reminiscent of sun rays

 

Why you'll love it!

♥ a classic staple with a vintage twist meaning you will be the only one wearing this pair!

♥ secure and comfortable - sleeper style means the close of these earrings completes a full hoop through the ear. This means once in they stay put and its very hard for them to get caught or tangled in your hair

♥ wearability - the iconic gold hoop goes with everything and can be dressed up or down. The sleeper close means you can pop them in and not worry about any fuss

Evelyn Hwang ~ July 2025

I love both the Diamond Ruby ring I got and the Diamond earrings. Both are very high quality pieces and as described. They were very well packaged and the shipping was fast. I would love to make another purchase soon! My ring and earrings were very well pacakaged.

I cannot fault the ring the customer service and the packaging. The pictures did not do this piece of jewelry justice. It is stunning and I am so thrilled with it. Could not be happier at every step of the purchasing process. This is a ring that I will treasure.

Melissa Eskridge ~ July 2025

What a joy to be in Paris and find the perfect gift for a 40th wedding anniversary. I had my heart set on an opal solitaire, preferably vintage design, and found exactly that. The ring even fit, no sizing needed. Rebecca is a pleasure to work with, and I enjoyed the chance to meet her. I found the ring browsing online and would have ordered it from home (the USA) had we not been within a couple of miles of each other in Paris. Her knowledge of fine jewelry is evident, and she could not have been more thorough or courteous. I had my jeweler take a look when I got home, and he said it's an amazingly fine gem, no damage at all, rare in vintage opals because they're "softer" than most stones and require conscientious care. This one will get just that. Thanks Rebecca!
