Description

Hand assembled in our East Coast Design Studio of stampings made from vintage toolings. Metal stampings have been used in the jewelry industry since the 1800 s. This process can create highly detailed, lightweight, and intricate designs. Because they are stamped out of sheets of metal, stampings like this item commonly have raised detail on the front of the stamping and are hollow on the back. 14" total length, 2"extension.Think you can only wear gold or sterling? Develop contact dermatitis from inexpensive earrings/jewelry? You probably have a nickel allergy, and you can wear GirlPROPS jewelry that has "100% nickel free" in its description.Most costume jewelry that calls itself nickel free may contain some nickel. There are no government standards or regulations for using the terms "nickel free" or "hypoallergenic." Some manufacturers use the term "nickel free" to describe a piece that is merely free of nickel in the plating, but they use nickel alloys in the base metal, and when the plating wears off, even minutely, an allergic reaction can occur. "Hypoallergenic" simply means causing fewer allergic reactions.GirlPROPS manufactured items use brass or pewter as their base metal, both nickel free, and when we call an item 100% nickel free, we plate with nickel free gold and imitation rhodium, or not at all. When we say 100% nickel free, we mean it! Rhodium plated base metal Lead Free Nickel Free Size is adjustable
