Herkimer Diamond Hoop Threaders
A pair of 24k gold threader hoops each with 3 small Herkimer diamonds.
Herkimer Diamonds are double-terminated quartz crystals. The "diamond" in their name comes from their clarity, natural faceting, and rating of 7.5 on the gemstone hardness scale. They can also have beautiful natural peppering, or inclusions that I love. I hand select my stones for their naturally rough/imperfect, yet still polished qualities.
Gold Fill
Gold filled jewelry is second only to solid gold. It has around 100% more gold than gold plated jewelry, and a much higher tarnish resistance. There is gold in the entire piece and it will not flake of or change colors. You can get gold-filled pieces wet and can wear when applying lotions or perfumes, etc. Even when worn daily, gold-filled jewerly can last 10-30 years. It is always recommended to remove it in salt water or chlorine, or putting on anything strong like retinol, peels, glycolic acid etc.
Gold Plate
Gold plating is a layer of gold applied to a base metal. It is recommend to keep it dry and away from skincare products. Remove to shower, don’t wear swimming, and avoid coming into daily contact with lotion, perfumes, and creams. Storage tip- keep it in a plastic bag to help avoid moisture in the air
Sterling Silver

Storage tip- keep it in a plastic bag to help avoid moisture in the air. Polishing your silver with a cloth is also a great way to maintain it's shine over the years.
