Benefits of Argentium Silver
Argentium is a new generation of silver alloys which contains a larger percentage of silver than traditional sterling silver, with the benefit of the alloy agent - germanium.
The result is a metal that is more durable, brighter, and more tarnish resistant than sterling silver.
Be considerate to these beauties:
Avoid wearing in water to preserve the colour of the raffia (don't shower with them and remove when washing your
face.
Each stitch has been done with patience, time and love. Both earrings are not identical - but similar.
Earring findings have been hand made - please allow for variances in shape and size
