Our Scallop and Pearl Danglies are adorable earrings, carefully handcrafted using ethically sourced freshwater pearls and a dainty gold plated scallop shell stud. The wire for the links is a high quality tarnish resistant wire that will last just as long as the gold plated stud, with proper care of course. These earrings are not waterproof, so it is not recommended to wear these in the water.
