Butterfly Pearl Stud Earrings

Frequently Asked Questions

What metal are the Butterfly Stud Earrings made from?

The earrings are made from a lead-free alloy base plated in rhodium, giving them a bright white surface finish. The rhodium plating sits over the alloy rather than being solid metal.

What kind of stones are set in these earrings?

The earrings are set with marquise-cut cubic zirconia stones in a prong setting, carrying a total stone weight of 1 ct. The prong setting leaves more of each stone exposed to light than a closed setting would.

How do these earrings attach to the ear?

The earrings use a post backing, which is a standard stud closure. This is a simple, secure style suited to pierced ears.

How should I care for these earrings over time?

Because the earrings are rhodium plated rather than solid metal, they should be kept away from harsh chemicals and moisture that could wear down the plating. Storing them separately from other jewelry helps prevent scratching of the plated surface.

How to Care for Your Butterfly Pearl Stud Earrings

1. Remove the earrings before swimming, bathing, or applying lotions and perfumes.
2. Wipe the piece gently with a soft, dry cloth after wearing to remove oils and residue.
3. Store the earrings in a separate pouch or compartment to prevent scratching the rhodium plating.
4. Avoid contact with household chemicals, chlorine, and abrasive cleaners.
5. Keep the piece dry, as moisture can wear down the plated finish over time.
