Read numbers before adjectives

The checked Mini Infinity Hoops list14mm diameter. Another brand’s mini or huggie name may use a different dimension or describe a different closure. A shared adjective does not establish equal fit.

Preserve the measurement type

A diameter, total drop, wire thickness and stud face width are different fields. Do not put them all in one size column and treat a larger number as a larger clear opening.

Avoid model-photo assumptions

Image crop, camera distance and the model’s proportions affect appearance. We have no calibrated on-ear measurement or actual comfort trial. Use maker dimensions as a reference and ask about unclear definitions.

A useful detail to retain

When a maker lists several dimensions, write the dimension name next to each number. A22mm length and a14mm hoop diameter should not sit under an unlabeled size heading. The point is to compare the same feature across products, not to declare the largest number the largest-looking or most suitable earring.

Before you decide

  • Save exact material and selling unit
  • Keep dimensions and their definitions
  • Refresh the selected offer before ordering
