Handwoven, handbeaded, and intricately designed earrings. Woven with small Rocaille glass seed beads and strong, gel-spun polyethylene thread. Earring hooks are 18k Rhodium Plated Brass, tarnish and allergen free. To care for earrings: 1. Gravity is your friend! Leave earrings to dangle when not wearing them. 2. While FireLine is an extremely strong thread, it is best to keep the earrings from moisture.
