Simple and elegant, and easy to wear, these are a customer (and personal) favorite!

I wear my pair without any backs and they stay put, but I include plastic safety backs, as they are more secure that way. Note that these are meant to be worn "open", since squeezing them to close will over time make the metal brittle.

The sterling (or argentium, or fine) wire used to make these is manufactured in the USA, from recovered (recycled) sources!

The 4th photo shows how they look on (but in gold); the dime in the last photo is included for size reference only.

Options:
• By default these are made with 20ga sterling wire; sightly larger 19ga or 18ga is also available, just add a 'note to seller' at checkout to request it!
• By default the finish on these is smooth & polished (planished, actually); however you can request a satin/brushed finish if preferred.
• Note that Sterling Silver will tarnish; Argentium is tarnish-resistant (though not tarnish-proof), and Fine Silver will not tarnish under normal conditions.
• Note that Fine silver will stay MUCH softer than the others, and is not available in 19ga.
