See scale before choosing
Compare diameter, drop, projection, and closure—not only a product name such as small or large.
The same millimeter size can feel different with a thin tube, thick hoop, stones, or a drop. Use the visualizer as a direction, then confirm the exact dimensions.
Working hoop visualizer
Compare hoop diameter and thickness together.
The drawing is a relative on-screen comparison. Confirm the exact outside diameter, tube thickness, closure, and weight before choosing a finished pair.A stone-set or solid hoop can feel more substantial than a light hollow hoop at the same outside diameter.
Fit, wear & care—considered together
A clearer decision, with the important context kept beside it
Compare hoop outside diameter and tube thickness as a relative on-screen direction, then keep clearance, closure, weight, and construction open.
Use this page when
- You want to compare several hoop scales side by side.
- You know whether the listing uses outside or inside diameter.
Pause this route when
- You expect the illustrated ear to match your anatomy exactly.
- You need comfort or weight from diameter alone.
Where this choice often matters
- Choosing an everyday hoop scale.
- Planning a statement or stone-set pair with a specific visible size.
Compare the details
Four measurements that should not be merged
The tool must label its selected measurement type and offer millimeters as the source unit.
| Measurement | Meaning | Affects | Keep open |
|---|---|---|---|
| Outside diameter | Full outer hoop width | Visible scale | Ear placement |
| Inside diameter | Open space inside hoop | Lobe clearance | Piercing position |
| Tube thickness | Metal or setting width | Visual weight | Solid/hollow construction |
| Drop | Post or hook to lowest point | Movement | Closure and total weight |

Questions worth asking
Open the concern that sounds like yours
Each answer stays within this page’s promise—Compare hoop outside diameter and tube thickness as a relative on-screen direction, then keep clearance, closure, weight, and construction open.—without making the next step feel heavier than it needs to be.
Will this show exactly where the hoop sits on me?
No. It is a relative direction; piercing position, lobe, and body differ.
Does a larger diameter always weigh more?
Not necessarily. Thickness, solid or hollow construction, stones, and closure matter.
Can I keep this exact scale in my design?
Yes. Carry diameter type, value, thickness, and open review questions into Atelier.
