Itty Bitty Silver Hoops plus Peridot Add-On Dangles

Description

This listing is for a pair of my itty bitty hoops in argentium sterling silver, plus a pair of removable peridot dangles on fine silver head pins.

Wear the hoops alone for a more understated chic look - they measure approximately 1 cm (10 mm) in diameter - or slip the peridot drops on before fastening them for a little more sparkle.

For everyday wear, I wear a pair of these hoops in my first ear piercing and a pair of my tiny silver ball stud earrings in my second piercing.

These make a great gift for new moms, because they are so small most babies don't grab at them. :)

Hoops have a lightly hammered texture. Each pair is made by me and has slight variations that make it unique.

I am told these are a great size to be worn as a nose ring - so go ahead and buy a pair for your nose, and you'll have a spare in case the one you are wearing gets damaged or lost.

Technical Details:

Hoops are approx. 1 cm and are made from 20 gauge argentium sterling silver wire. Argentium silver is 92.5% silver mixed with a bit of copper and germanium. It has more tarnish resistance than regular sterling silver, so it doesn't have to be polished as often.

Peridot beads are "rondelle" shape and have tiny facets. They are 5-6 mm at the widest point and vary slightly in size and shape. The bead in the image is a sample, yours may be slightly larger or smaller.

The head pins are made from fine silver, which is 99.9% pure silver.

Silver components are handmade by me.

These earrings & the charms are made to order, so please allow 2-3 business days plus shipping time to receive your order.

I also have freshwater pearl charms as well as assorted gemstone beads - convo me if there is a stone you are interested in that isn't listed, I just might have some in my stash.
