Handmade in Brazil under the watchful eyes of the finest craftspeople, these hoops are a story years in the making. Brilliantly cast out of a lightweight, strong, blend of metals, the hoops are prepped in a plating facility and hand brushed, one at a time. The result is a hoop weighing less than anything on the market, that will last for a long time, and that looks gorgeous. 18K gold plated over 100% nickel free brass and silver plated over 100% nickel free brass. Comes with pouch. Excellent condition. All items are from a smoke free/pet free home. I am cleaning out my closet.
