Durability

  • Trochus Bone Beads: Trochus bone is a natural material and, while generally strong, it is susceptible to cracking or chipping if subjected to rough treatment. Handle with care to preserve its integrity.
  • Antique Copper-Style Brass Findings: Brass is durable but can tarnish over time, especially with exposure to moisture, sweat, or chemicals. It’s sturdy for everyday use but should be stored properly to prevent wear.

Suitability

  • Casual Wear: These earrings are perfect for daily wear, offering a unique, earthy aesthetic that complements casual outfits.
  • Special Occasions: The natural look of trochus bone can also add a refined touch to bohemian or nature-inspired themes at more formal events.

Storage

  • Store the earrings in a jewelry box or hermetic bag when not in use to prevent damage from contact with other jewelry or abrasive surfaces.
  • Keep the earrings in a cool, dry location to protect the bone from humidity, which could cause cracking or discoloration over time.

Cleaning

  • Trochus Bone Beads: Wipe the bone beads gently with a soft, dry cloth to remove dirt or oil. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth, but avoid soaking the beads in water, as this could cause damage.
  • Brass Findings: Brass can tarnish with time. Use a jewelry cloth or a soft cloth to clean the brass. A brass cleaner can be used sparingly if necessary, but ensure it is safe for delicate materials.
  • General Care: Ensure the brass findings do not get scratched by other hard items. Regularly check the hooks to ensure they remain secure and the pin is in good shape.

General Care Tips

  • Avoid wearing the earrings while swimming or showering, as moisture can affect both the bone and brass components.
  • Keep the earrings away from harsh chemicals (like perfumes, lotions, or cleaning agents) that can damage the finish of the materials.

6 & 10mm beads, in some cases the size of the stone beads may vary +-1mm.

Hook lengths range between 1cm basic hooks, 1.5+cm English Locks, 2cm silver hooks – refer to the product photos.

On Earrings’ Weight Principles

In principle I keep the weight below 5 grams per earring, so it doesn’t stretch or hurt your ears even if you wear it the whole day. Occasionally, for some designs, that weight limit exceeds by a gram – every pair has their specific weight marked under the general description or “dimensions” tab.

Trochus Seashell – The Whispers of the Ocean

Trochus beads, made from the Trochus shell, are prized for their creamy white to light pink hues with a natural iridescence.

Etymology

“Trochus” refers to the genus of marine snails from which the shells are sourced. These beads might also be called: Mother of Pearl Beads when referring to the nacre layer used in beads. Trochus Shell Beads.

Paua Shell – The Ocean’s Kaleidoscope

Paua shell, derived from the abalone mollusk native to New Zealand, is renowned for its vibrant, iridescent colors ranging from deep blues and greens to purples and pinks. Each piece of Paua shell jewelry is unique, showcasing nature’s artistry through its nacreous layers.
