All clay earrings are handmade so there may be a slight variation that occurs. I try to have everything as identical as possible. Each earring has a stainless steel post/hook/ball post used for it. Posts are nickel free, hypoallergenic and work well with sensitive ears. Dangle earrings are all made with gold hardware. If silver is needed, please message me and I will try to accommodate you! I hope you enjoy TCC earrings, they're all made with love :) If you tag @tulaclayco on Instagram, I will gladly share your post in our stories to attract more customers.
