Lightweight anodized aluminum scales hang in single line formation in these demigirl scalemail earrings. There is one scale of each of the 4 colors of the demigirl flag: dark gray, light gray, light pink, and white (represented with matte silver). Silver aluminum jump rings link the scales. The ear wires are hypoallergenic stainless steel. Including the ear wire, the earrings measure 2-1/2" in length. They are just over 1/2" wide. Dimes shown for scale. I offer 2 styles of ear wires, hypoallergenic stainless steel French hooks and lever backs. Please select your ear wire preference from the drop down menu. Aluminum is a lightweight metal that will not tarnish or rust, and is easy to care for. The colors of anodized aluminum can be scratched by harder metals so take care when storing your earrings. I only use high quality saw cut jump rings in my jewelry which allow for smooth closures that won't snag your hair or clothing. Your demigirl pride chainmail earrings will arrive carefully packed within a white jewelry box lined with cotton and tissue paper and enclosed in a plain white bubble mailer.
