Rings and Hoops for Jewelry: Open and Closed
Rings and hoops for jewelry are the small connectors that hold every creation together: they link pendants, beads and charms, join the ends of necklaces and bracelets, and act as a base for hoop earrings and dreamcatchers. In this section you'll find open rings for quick connections, closed rings for permanent joins, double split rings for an extra-secure closure and nickel-free metal hoops for earrings and dreamcatchers — all in gold and silver finish.

✨ TESSILAND STUDIOFrequently Asked Questions about Rings and Hoops for Jewelry
What's the difference between an open ring and a double split ring?
An open ring has a single cut that you open with pliers; a double split ring, on the other hand, has two overlapping loops, like a keyring, and offers a more secure closure for heavy pendants or components that tend to come loose.
Are open rings suitable for dangle earrings?
Yes, they're the most common choice for dangle earrings: they let you attach charms, beads and small chains to the earring hook and adjust the composition before closing them permanently.
Are rings and hoops suitable for skin that's allergic to metals?
Yes, several items in this category, such as the hoops for earrings and dreamcatchers, are nickel free, designed to be worn against the skin without the risk of allergic reactions.
How do you choose the right size for a project?
It depends on the thickness of the material you're connecting and the space available: for thin threads and cords, small sizes (5-8mm) are enough, while for thicker chains or bulkier components, sizes from 10mm upward are more practical.
Can metal hoops be used for projects other than dreamcatchers?
Yes: besides dreamcatchers, metal hoops are perfect as a base for hoop earrings, textile mandalas or small wall decorations, simply by changing what you attach around the rim.
How many closed rings do you need for an average project?
For a necklace or bracelet with few attachment points, a handful is enough, but for projects with more charms or components — or to always keep a reserve — packs of 9 to 48 pieces, depending on size, let you complete several creations without running out.
