Classic 22mm (7/8") hoop earrings with malachite bead and sterling silver posts.

These beads are hand-carved and were purchased at a craft market in Uganda- expect character in the form of cracks and imperfect roundness.

If you don't mind a little upkeep, brass is a longer-lasting alternative to gold plating. Unlike gold-plating, which wears off within a few months, brass just is. Let it patina to an earthy brown or keep it polished and bright to mimic the look of 14k gold.

Includes care instructions and rubber earring backs.
