*Free* SHIPPING WITHIN THE U.S.A. -- earrings are tucked within a reusable tin and placed in a padded envelope.

RUSTIC GRACE:

In Colonial Thymes, women adorned themselves as they could -- bits of pretty glass, freshwater pearls, corals, shells, and rustic beads were hung on brass, silvery metal, or copper wire, or placed in settings such as brass filigree.

"Precious" metals and gemstones were very rare indeed. The worth of a bauble was determined by its style and appearance, not by a standard set by jewelers or money markets. Whether something was "precious" was up to the mind of the wearer and the eye of the beholder! And jewelry of any kind was precious, indeed.

WHY EARBOBS ARE SO SPECIAL:

I have literally thousands of beads and findings from a lifetime of vintage shopping and bead collecting! I delve into my collection to create unusual earrings that always have a special touch -- a rare bead, a rare color, an oddment, a vintage bead, or a bit of vintage filigree or other finding.

Ye Olde Guarantee:

Fresh, delicate, and feminine, Penniwig's Colonial Earbobs come with an Ironclad Guarantee: Be satisfied with them, or return within 2 weeks AFTER CONTACTING ME as to your intention, in same condition as received (send back gift tin, thank you, as it keeps the earrings from being crushed) for a full refund of original purchase price!

Authentically Handmade:

These Colonial Earbobs are happily handmade. They do not look machine made, with laser-cut filigree or robotic-made perfect loops. But they are not poorly made! Quite sturdy and ready for years of wear!!! They are, in my humble opinion, so much better than the laquered and "perfect" jewelry you find by the millions in department stores and importers' stock.

Please see my sister shoppe, MerrieArtist, for my 100 percent positive feedback on previous purchases.
