Midnight Spiral Niobium Earrings

• These elegant drop down spiral earrings are handcrafted out of 20 gauge wire in niobium, with a 5mm crystal pearl. Simulated pearls are perfect in color, depth, and shape. • Pictured: Midnight (teal). • They are lightweight and very comfortable to wear.  • Approximately 1.6 inches long, or 41mm total length: 31mm drop length. • Comes as a pair, with a left and right side. • Niobium is hypoallergenic, and is my personal #1 recommendation for switching out new piercings for the first time, and for body jewelry. Niobium is a "reactive" metal. Its natural color is a dark gray. To change the color of the niobium it is immersed in a water and sudsy solution, with an electric current. How long the metal stays in the water with the electricity, determines what type of color it will take. Niobium is similar to titanium, but is softer, and has more brilliant coloring. •• Nickel free •• • Tip: DO NOT use abrasive cloths or solutions to clean these earrings—as it will dampen and dull the color.
