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. They were tested by Sheila herself at the beach for days at a time, at galas and at meetings. The ultimate piece for every occasion, they will withstand salt, waves, sun, humidity, you name it, and still exalt style anywhere you go. Our masterpiece, and an homage to the Brazilian spirit. Plated Hoops (2.5"), 2 1/2 Inch Wear and tear resistant Waterproof Soldered to ensure complete seal
