Hammered petal hoops. Sterling silver post + snug, hypoallergenic backs. Handcrafted in 14kt gold fill and .935 argentium silver in Richmond, VA.
Mini: approx. 1.25” in length from top to tip.
Medium: approx. 1.75” in length from top to tip.
Care: 14kt gold fill is a sold bond of 14kt gold to a gold tone base metal. Unlike plated gold, gold fill is a long wear, nickel free option at a moderate price. Buff with a polishing pad to preserve the surface and keep its shine. Casual wear/handwashing will keep gold fill pieces bright and clean.
.935 argentium silver has a higher silver content than .925 sterling silver with a touch of geranium. It is resistant to tarnish and nickel free. Daily wear will keep this silver bright and clean. A polishing cloth will bring silver back to new after many years.
Storing in a box or velvet pouch when not in use will keep the surface from dulling or oxidizing.
