History of hoops
The history of hoop earrings is as long as human history itself. Throughout history, the gold hoop earring has been a powerful symbol in numerous cultures. Since the earliest days of civilization, both men and women have adorned their bodies with jewelry. The oldest earrings archaeologists have discovered are - the now classic - gold hoop style. In 1500 BC Egypt, even cats were adorned with gold hoop earrings. And earrings were turned into a status symbol by emperor Julius Caesar during his reign over Rome. During the golden age of piracy, pirates were known to be flamboyant dressers and are thought to have worn earrings as an essential accessory. Why exactly men of the sea began to put hoops in their ears is anyone's guess, but there are many legends that claim to explain the fashion but that's another story. Much later on, hoop earrings style emerged in Mexican subcultures in California and played an essential part in Latin neighborhoods and communities of color. That's what we call, a powerful legacy!
