Small Leaf Rhododendron Sterling Silver Earrings / 18K Gold Plated Earrings / Clip-on Earrings - Three Colors

**Small Leaf Rhododendron Sterling Silver Earrings / 18K Gold Plated Earrings / Clip-on Earrings - Three Colors** **✦✦✦ Product Description ✦✦✦** The Small Leaf Rhododendron is a Taiwan endemic species. Its flower language is "Forever Yours" and "Joy of Love." Among wild rhododendrons, it has the smallest leaves and is found at altitudes of 2,000-3,500 meters. This variety is exceptionally rare. After its blooming season in May, the plant's distinctive whorled leaf arrangement remains, showcasing its enduring beauty. We've captured the multi-branched characteristic of the Small Leaf Rhododendron, preserving its slender leaves to create a three-dimensional piece of jewelry that embodies grace and elegance. S.Y. Handcraft meticulously records moments of sprouting, blooming, and withering in nature through metal artistry, conveying the beautiful value of the life cycle. Our inspiration stems from observing the humble plants around us and their seasonal transformations. We primarily use recycled silver and copper, embracing the spirit of nature, circularity, and vitality. Through handcrafted techniques, we create exquisite adornments that extend the life of craftsmanship and imbue them with energy. ----------------------------------------- **✦✦✦ Product Features ✦✦✦** ■ Customizable as convenient and secure clip-on earrings. ■ Suitable for both pierced and non-pierced ears. ■ Unique botanical texture design. ■ Realistic and varied natural shapes and textures, no two alike. ■ Meticulous attention to detail and comfortable wear. ■ Professionally crafted by our team for lasting durability and resilience. ■ Exclusive design by S.Y.

Our 925 sterling silver jewelry contains 92.5% silver and 7.5% alloy, adhering to the internationally recognized standard for sterling silver. This composition offers excellent anti-allergy properties, resistance to oxidation, and enhanced hardness and durability, making it ideal for intricate designs. **Through a unique oxidation process, colors are naturally achieved with rich, layered tones. The color distribution on each piece varies, highlighting its unique character and exclusive quality.** The jewelry's color saturation and luster may gradually change due to environmental humidity, the wearer's perspiration pH, and friction from daily wear. As the oxidation layer wears off, the piece will appear more silver. For sustained vibrancy, we recommend booking our sulfidation service. - **■ Color: Gold.** **■ Material: Brass, International Standard 925 Sterling Silver, surface plated with 18K gold.** ■ Using electrolysis, a protective layer of K gold is plated onto the surface of sterling silver or brass through an electroplating solution. The gold plating layer is approximately 5-10 microns thick, utilizing jewelry-grade, nickel-free plating for a K gold aesthetic. It offers excellent resistance to oxidation, fading, and is highly durable. The gold plating layer, containing gold, can gradually wear off due to environmental humidity, the wearer's perspiration pH, and friction from daily wear, revealing the base metal's original color. This is a normal phenomenon. When the plating wears thin, we recommend booking our re-plating service to maintain the jewelry's beautiful finish. ----------------------------------------- **✦✦✦ Packaging ✦✦✦** ■ This item includes gift packaging, making it ideal for gifting. ■ Gift Packaging: Includes a paper box, care card, storage pouch, and a sealed bag. ■ The gift box is made from recycled paper materials. ■ We offer a complimentary card writing service; please provide the text content in your order notes. ■ If you require a gift bag, please request it in your order notes. ----------------------------------------- **✦✦✦ Care Instructions ✦✦✦** ■ Keep your jewelry dry at all times. ■ Remove jewelry before engaging in activities that cause heavy sweating, showering, or bathing, as sulfur compounds in moisture can accelerate oxidation. ■ Avoid contact with highly acidic or alkaline substances such as hot springs, swimming pools, cosmetics, and perfumes. ■ The jewelry will develop a unique character through daily wear, environmental humidity, and natural body oils. ■ Gently clean intricate areas with a mild detergent and water to remove sweat and dirt.
