Care notes
Having a sterling silver base, these earrings are hypoallergenic and suit sensitive ears.
Take care to not expose them to water (don't wear them in the shower or go swimming in them) to promote the longevity of the plating. Plating wears over time, when worn gently, it hold ups for longer. Plated jewellery can be re-plated later in life to give it a refresh.
Solid gold vs Gold plating
A common misunderstanding about plated jewellery is the price contrast in comparison to solid gold. Solid gold is a costly metal to work with, plated counterparts can be high quality and just as worthy of investment, but ultimately are considerably less expensive than solid gold.
