For these big dangle earrings I dye coconut shell discs a rich shade of brown, add red tiger's eye beads, then wire wrap the earrings using silver plated wire. The earrings measure 2 inches (5 cm) in length including the ear wires and are light as a feather. The ear wires are nickel-free hypo-allergenic surgical steel and they are safe for anyone with metal allergies. Your earrings will be shipped in an organza bag. * CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Although these earrings are colorfast, please avoid swimming or bathing in your jewelry.
