Delicate and lightweight, these classic hoop earrings are individually made by myself in the USA in my private studio. Thin Argentium Sterling Silver wire is used for these earrings, which means they will wear comfortably in the ear and have increased tarnish resistance compared to traditional Sterling Silver. If you do notice your earrings tarnishing (sometimes starts with a slight yellow hue on Argentium), a quick wipe with a silver polishing cloth will bring your earrings back to their original bright shine.
