Lou is a small hinged hoop set with a row of cubic zirconia, carrying three 0.27" / 7mm linked loops that swing and catch the light as you move. At 0.63" / 16mm it sits close to the lobe and feels light enough to wear all day. Wear a pair on its own, or stack it with a simple stud for an easy layered look.
- Gold-plated or silver-tone steel
- Row of cubic zirconia stones

What PVD plating actually means
PVD bonds the plating into the steel rather than laying it on top like electroplate or vermeil, so it doesn't rub or flake, and the steel underneath can't rust or go green.
Wear it every day
- Shower and wash your hands with it on
- Sweat through a workout
- Get caught in the rain
- Wear it every day, back to back
Wipe it with a soft dry cloth and store it dry. No polishing compounds — they abrade plating.
Care instructions
PVD gold is hard-wearing, but it isn't chemically inert. Keep it away from chlorinated pools and hot tubs, bleach and household cleaners, and perfume, lotion or hairspray sprayed straight onto it — put those on first, let them dry, then put the piece on.
Water on its own is fine. It's the chemicals that do the damage.

What you're paying for
Jewelry usually reaches a shop through a distributor, a wholesaler and a buyer, and each one takes a margin on the way. The finished price is commonly eight to ten times what the piece cost to make. We sell direct, so what you pay covers the piece and getting it to you.

A best estimate, not a receipt for this piece. The figures are a weighted average across our range, so any single item runs a little above or below. Import tax is a US average and depends on where you live. None of this includes the cost of running the business.
