Half-Dayflower Sterling Silver Earrings | 18K Gold Plated Earrings | Cartilage Earrings | Slim Fit | Three Colors

**Half-Dayflower Sterling Silver Earrings | 18K Gold Plated Earrings | Cartilage Earrings | Slim Fit | Three Colors** **✦✦✦ Product Introduction ✦✦✦** The Half-Dayflower (Areca catechu flower) belongs to the palm family, native to tropical and subtropical regions. Its spadix emerges from the leaf axils, with each tree bearing 3-4 flower clusters. These inflorescences burst forth with a vibrant, fiery spirit, exuding a subtle, sweet fragrance. We've abstracted the delicate flowers, focusing on the slender peduncles for our design. Natural textures are meticulously transferred onto the metal, creating an irregular, subtly textured surface with a rugged, unadorned finish. This interplay of light and shadow, as it catches the unevenness, imbues the piece with a minimalist yet powerful aesthetic. Shigeyo captures the fleeting moments of nature's cycles – sprouting, blooming, and withering – through metal craftsmanship, conveying the beautiful value of life's continuous journey. Our inspiration stems from observing the often-overlooked details of plants around us and their seasonal transformations. We primarily utilize recycled silver and copper, embracing the spirit of nature, circularity, and vitality. Through handcrafted artistry, we create exquisite adornments, extending the life of traditional crafts and infusing them with energy. ----------------------------------------- **✦✦✦ Product Features ✦✦✦** ■ Earrings designed for all genders. ■ Easy to wear, secure fit with adjustable tightness for comfort. ■ Suitable for both pierced and non-pierced ears. ■ Features our exclusive botanical texture design. ■ Captures the natural, realistic, and unique forms and textures of plants. ■ Meticulous attention to detail and wearer comfort. ■ Expertly crafted for durability and longevity. ■ Exclusively designed and entirely handmade by the Shigeyo team. ■ Original Taiwanese design, handmade in limited quantities. ■ Comprehensive after-sales service, including complimentary maintenance and basic repairs. ----------------------------------------- **✦✦✦ Product Information ✦✦✦** ■ Quantity: One piece. ■ Dimensions: Width 0.35cm, Diameter 1.35cm.

Our 925 sterling silver pieces contain 92.5% silver and 7.5% alloy, adhering to the internationally recognized standard for sterling silver. This composition ensures excellent anti-allergy properties, resistance to oxidation, and enhanced hardness and durability, making it ideal for intricate designs. This is why we choose 925 sterling silver for our collection. Achieved through a unique oxidation process, the color presents rich, layered tones, with variations in color distribution across each piece, highlighting its unique character. The oxidized finish may gradually change in saturation and luster due to environmental humidity, the wearer's perspiration pH, and abrasion from contact with skin. As the oxidation layer wears off, revealing the underlying silver, we recommend booking our vulcanization service to maintain the unique coloration. - **■ Color: Gold.** **■ Material: Brass, plated with 18K gold.** ■ Using electrolysis, a layer of K gold is applied to the surface of sterling silver or brass. The plating thickness is approximately 5-10 microns. We use jewelry-grade, nickel-free plating for a rich K gold appearance, offering excellent resistance to oxidation and fading, along with enhanced hardness. The gold plating layer, containing gold, may gradually wear off due to environmental humidity, the wearer's perspiration pH, and friction from skin contact, revealing the base metal. This is a normal phenomenon. When the plating wears off, we recommend booking our re-plating service to maintain the beautiful finish of your jewelry. ----------------------------------------- **✦✦✦ Packaging ✦✦✦** ■ This item comes with gift packaging, perfect for gifting. ■ Gift Packaging Includes: Gift box, care card, storage pouch, and sealed bag. ■ The gift box is made from recycled paper. ■ We offer a personalized card writing service.

Avoid pulling, heavy pressure, bending, and friction or collision with other jewelry to prevent deformation. ■ For minor smudges and dust from handling, a gentle wipe with a clean, soft cloth is usually sufficient. ■ Silver jewelry can be polished with a silver polishing cloth. ■ Do not use a silver polishing cloth on charcoal gray or gold-plated jewelry. ----------------------------------------- **✦✦✦ Warranty Information ✦✦✦** ■ Enjoy complimentary lifetime maintenance and basic repair services to extend the product's life and achieve sustainable beauty. ■ Maintenance services include oxidation restoration.
