18 Gauge Piercing Keepers + Small Endless Style Hoop Earrings + Argentium Silver
I made these from Argentium Silver 18 gauge wire.
They are very small, with an outside diameter of approximately 12mm, Inside 11mm.
18 gauge wire a little thicker than standard ear wires which are normally 20 gauge - so if you have sensitive or tiny piercings these may not be for you!
They DO require twisting to wear - You will receive them twisted in the OPEN position. Simply slide into piercing, rotate into position, and then gently twist closed until both ends of the hoop meet/line up, as seen in photo.
Photo with US quarter shows these hoops in the 'twisted open' position.
These are intended for semi-long term wear - frequent twisting for taking on/off will weaken the wire over time and they will break.
Additional Info:
Azteca Designs jewelry is hand-fabricated one unique piece at a time by me! Most of my work features intentional oxidation and patina. This finish is not meant to be removed, however, a small polishing cloth is included with silver jewelry orders and you may use this to gently clean your silver jewelry if it begins to tarnish.
Some gemstones are more delicate than others. Please wear pieces with care. I recommend removing all jewelry before strenuous activity or bathing/swimming.
Most orders ship in 1-3 business days.
Please contact me with any questions you may have PRIOR to making your purchase!
