Lightweight anodized aluminum scales hang in single line formation in these transgender pride chainmail earrings. There is one scale of each of the 3 trans flag colors: pink, matte silver (to represent white) and light blue. Silver aluminum jump rings link the scales. Including the ear wire, the earrings measure 2-1/4" in length. They are just over 1/2" wide. Dimes shown for scale. The current ear wires are hypoallergenic surgical stainless steel fish hooks, but can be changed to steel lever backs if you prefer. 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. 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. The colors of anodized aluminum can be scratched by harder metals, so take care in storing your jewelry. Your transgender pride chainmail earrings will arrive carefully packed within a white jewelry box lined with cotton and tissue paper and enclosed in a bubble mailer.
