Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs
Will bronze turn my skin green?
For most skin types, bronze will cause a chemical reaction called oxidation, resulting in the skin that’s in contact with the metal to turn green. This is a harmless and natural side effect of wearing metal jewelry, and happens because Bronze, Silver, and Gold (except 24 Karat) are alloys that contain copper. If they weren’t alloys, then silver and gold would not be strong enough metals to be made into jewelry.
Are your earrings hypoallergenic?
Yes. Both bronze and silver are nickel-free, which is the most common metal allergy. However, both bronze and silver contain copper, which is, though uncommonly, also a metal allergy.
The posts- the part that goes in your ear- is always sterling silver, even on the bronze pieces. Silver is a high quality metal and is hypoallergenic for most earring-wearers.
Will silver turn my skin green?
It’s much less likely for silver to oxidize in contact with your skin than it is for bronze, but it is still possible. Folks with acidic skin surfaces will experience oxidation more intensely than folks with less acidic skin surfaces.
Are the earrings heavy?
Because my background is in PVC Resin jewelry, I am committed to creating lightweight jewelry that you want to wear for hours on end and won’t stretch out your lobes. That being said, “light” is different for everyone, and that’s why the weight is listed in grams in each product description.
This is a frequently asked question?
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
