Product Information
I have sensitive ears. What are your posts made out of?
For our Geo Studs: We offer both a sterling silver base and a brass base option for our studs - both are plated in our extra-thick 14k gold plating. Both pairs of studs are hypoallergenic and are nickel and lead free. We chose to use an extra thick (1 micron thick, to be exact) 14k gold plating so that they won't wear over time.
For our leather statement earrings and Studio Studs: We use 304 stainless steel posts. 304 stainless steel is great for sensitive ears, and nearly all people with allergies won’t have any reaction to these posts. If you are part of the 5% of metal allergies that is highly sensitive to metals (and you’ll know if you are), these posts may irritate your ears after a days worth of wearing.
How do I care for my Cold Gold leather goods?
What to Avoid: Keep your Cold Gold leather goods looking & feeling their very best by keeping them away from large amounts of water - submerging your leather goods may change the wear and appearance. Light colored keychain wristlets may darken slightly over time, but most will keep their true color and brilliance for years to come.
Cleaning: Spot clean your crossbody bag, sling bag, or wallet with a soft cloth and warm, slightly soapy water - make sure your cloth is damp not soggy! Polish brass hardware with a brass polishing cloth or clean microfiber cloth. Don’t have those? A clean, old t-shirt works great too.
How do I care for my Cold Gold leather earrings?
Avoid getting your leather earrings soaking wet. They may change texture or color if they are submerged in water - Light rain is fine. Light colored earrings may darken slightly over time, but most will keep their true color and brilliance for years to come.
How do I care for my Cold Gold stud earrings?
What to Avoid: Keep your studs shiny and happy by keeping them away from excessive amounts of water and sweat. It’s best to remove them before swimming, showering, sleeping, exercising, and white water rafting.
Storage: We recommend storing your earrings in a cool dry place, like a jewelry box, an earring stand, or a dresser drawer. (The box these came in works great, too.)
Cleaning: If desired, polish your Geo Studs with a microfiber cloth for extra shine. Note that you should stay away from using jewelry cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they could wear away the gold-plated finish.
