The Luna Hoops take their reference from Frida Kahlo's relationship with the moon — a form she returned to throughout her life as an embodiment of femininity, emotion, and the body's own landscape.
The hoop is cast in recycled sterling silver and electroplated in 14k gold, its surface covered entirely in a fine granular texture — small, raised spheres packed closely together, evoking the cratered surface of the moon. Substantial without being heavy, the hoop sits with presence against the ear.
A piece with a point of view.

ABOUT the MAKER
Charlotte Penman Jewellery
Charlotte Penman's jewellery draws on the natural world, 20th-century design icons, and the visual language of ancient adornment. Working in New Zealand with sterling silver, solid gold, and carefully sourced gemstones, she makes pieces that carry weight - not just in materials, but in reference and intention. Her designs range from sculptural rings set with natural stones through to fine gold necklaces and drop earrings - each one considered, each one with a clear point of view. The serpent, the sacred heart, the ginkgo leaf: motifs chosen for what they carry, worn for what they mean to the person wearing them. Pieces designed to be kept.
