DROPS
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
These minimalist and delicate shoulder duster drops are unnoticeable and noticeable at the same time.
One tiny crystal solitaire stud sits at the top of the earring and from that, a free-flowing fine string of 14k gold over sterling silver extends 52mm, with a small bar of 14k gold over sterling silver dangling in the light, at the bottom of it.
But with one big difference.
The free-flowing fine string of 14k gold plated sterling doesn't dangle from the usual place, in the front, but it dangles from the back, on the other side of the ear lobe.
They are beautiful and different at the same time.
Because of their whispery and delicate-looking design, they can be worn easily, from day into night.

A NOTE ABOUT STERLING
A NOTE ABOUT STERLING
We at Shorewood Jewelry believe in quality and because every piece is made of solid 925 sterling silver as it’s base metal (including 14k gold over sterling), we can genuinely call it fine jewelry.
Real Sterling (whether plated or not) can be worn for years, without turning the skin a green tinge, such as with brass. As well, unlike brass, sterling silver is hypoallergenic.
Although swimming in the salty ocean or a chlorinated pool is not recommended because the salt can ultimately corrode the silver, you can shower in clean water every day with sterling silver.
That said, although considered a precious metal, one of the biggest things to be mindful of when it comes to sterling silver is that it is composed of a soft metal.
Yes, although it’s precious, sterling is soft!
It is definitely more bendable and pliable than for
instance, stainless steel, which is a hard metal.
So remember to be mindful of 2 things:
1. Be aware of the chain on your neck when quickly pulling a sweater over your head, or it could cause the chain to break!
2. Be aware to be gentle with the post on your stud or hoop earrings. Although the posts can be moved, as sometimes they bend slightly and need to be straightened, remember to do it smoothly and gently, with fingers held firmly on the whole post, as you move it into place.
Please see our Returns page to read about our chain breakage policy.
