Our take on the 18K Gold PVD CZ Huggie Earrings - 316L Stainless Steel, 6mm Inner Hoop
These are small huggie earrings with a single cubic zirconia stone set into a 6mm inner hoop (9.75mm outer), sold as a pair. The 18K gold PVD coating, 8 to 10 microns thick, sits over 316L surgical stainless steel rather than a brass core, so the finish resists tarnish and scratching far better than typical gold-plated huggies. They are nickel-free and lead-free, which suits sensitive ears and everyday wear in the shower or at the gym. Against gold-filled or brass-core hoops, the trade-off is a steel base instead of precious metal, but the durability and skin-friendly construction are the draw.
- 316L stainless steel base resists scratches and bending
- 8-10 micron 18K gold PVD coat holds up to wear
- Nickel-free and lead-free, so less irritation
- Waterproof and non-tarnish; won't turn skin green
- Compact 6mm inner hoop sits close to the lobe
- Steel core, not gold-filled or solid gold
- Single CZ per earring, so less sparkle than pavé hoops
- Small 6mm inner diameter may feel tight on thicker lobes
- Huggie clasp style can be fiddly for some wearers

Questions and answers
- Will these tarnish or turn my skin green?
- The 18K gold PVD coating over 316L stainless steel is built to resist tarnish, and the steel is nickel-free and lead-free. That construction is what keeps the finish from discoloring skin the way brass-core plated jewelry can.
- Can I wear them in the shower or at the gym?
- Yes. The PVD coating and stainless steel base are waterproof and salt-spray tested, so routine water exposure is not a concern.
- How big are they?
- The inner hoop measures 6mm and the outer diameter about 9.75mm, a small huggie that sits close to the earlobe.
- Are they sold as a pair or singly?
- They are sold per pair.
- How do they compare with gold-filled huggies?
- Gold-filled and plated huggies usually use a brass core, which is softer and can tarnish once the layer wears. These use marine-grade 316L stainless steel, which resists scratches and bending better, though the gold is a coating rather than a bonded gold layer.
- Are they hypoallergenic?
- The steel is nickel-free and lead-free, which makes them a reasonable choice for sensitive ears. Anyone with a known metal allergy should still test a short wear first.
