Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can I request a custom order?
    • Yes! We welcome custom orders. If you are looking for a custom piece(s) please reach out and we can discuss the details. However due to each slabs uniqueness it can be challenging to replicate or recreate a previous style. Custom orders will be on a case by case basis. Please note that all custom orders will require the payment in full prior to beginning on the piece(s). 
  • Are the earring posts hypoallergenic?
    • Yes, we use metal components that are hypoallergenic. To help customers when making a purchase, details are added to each product description. For all of the stud earrings or earrings with a top clay post, surgical stainless steel posts are used that are coated in either gold or silver, depending on the style.  For hoops, ball posts, fish hooks or other decorative earring tops, they are usually 18k gold plated over brass or stainless steel.

    • Yes! Please contact us so we can discuss further in regards to overall details, quantity and availability. 
  • Are polymer clay earrings heavy?
    • Polymer clay earrings are extremely lightweight! Polymer clay allows you to wear beautiful unique earrings, comfortably all day. Most pairs of earrings weigh around 6 grams which is about the weight of a single quarter.
  • How do I care for my polymer clay earrings?
    • Polymer clay earrings are lightweight, durable, and slightly flexible. However, if roughly handled they can scratch or break. Each piece should be handled with care. It is recommended to store them in the jewelry box provided or on your jewelry stand or case. Keep them in a clean dry location. To remove any makeup, dust, or debris apply a small amount of rubbing alcohol or acetone to a cloth and gently apply to the area. Raw brass and metal components can tarnish or darken over time especially if exposed to oils and water. Simply use a soft jewelry cloth or apply a small amount of metal cleaner like Brasso® to bring them back to their original beauty.
