Earrings are hand cut and sanded, for smoothness. These were created from a lovely, Vintage, Dutch tin.
Earring wires are antique gold-plated brass, 16mm flat fishhook with open loop, 21 gauge.  Each pair come with silicone clear earring backs. 
Earrings have been treated with a museum grade wax to protect and enhance, called Renaissance.
Hypoallergenic wires made from Niobium can be switched out for an extra charge of $4.
