I’ve been making hoops like these since I first opened my Etsy shop in 2007. And, these classic hammered hoops on posts have been a best seller in my Saturday market booth as well as in my Etsy shop. I have a couple of tutorials for how to actually make them…But, this is just a guide for measuring your wire to get the right diameter hoops. These measurements are approximates for 14 gauge/1.6mm sterling silver round half-hard wire. Imperial • .75” diameter = 1.75” wire • 1 1/4” diameter = 3” wire • 1 1/2” diameter = 4” wire • 2” diameter = 5” wire • 2 1/4” diameter = 6” wire Metric • 18mm diameter = 44.5mm wire • 31.5mm diameter = 76mm wire • 38mm dia = 10cm • 51mm dia = 12.7cm • 57mm dia = 15.4cm You’ll want to save this guide for later for quick reference when making
