Hypoallergenic jewelry means that there is minimal risk of causing an allergic reaction. Most hypo-allergic jewelry contains pure metals such as platinum, gold, titanium, copper, and stainless steel, fine silver, and sterling silver. However, softer metals like gold and silver will have other metals alloyed with them or plated over a stronger base metal. These types of jewelry are suitable for those who experience allergic reactions to nickel.

Nickel is a common allergy and almost 15% of the population is allergic to nickel. Nickel can be found in many products that touch skin, ranging from earring posts, body jewelry, eyeglass frames, watchbands, button, zippers, and costume jewelry, to basic hair pins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat is hypoallergenic jewelry?\u003cbr\u003eHypoallergenic jewelry is jewelry that is made out of pure metals such as platinum, 18k gold, titanium, copper, and stainless steel, fine silver and sterling silver. Hypoallergenic jewelry means that there is minimal risk of causing an allergic reaction. Most hypo-allergic jewelry contains pure metals such as platinum, gold, titanium, copper, and stainless steel, fine silver, and sterling silver. However, softer metals like gold and silver will have other metals alloyed with them or plated over a stronger base metal. These types of jewelry are suitable for those who experience allergic reactions to nickel. The safest alternative to metal is medical-grade plastic earrings and keeping your ski safe is just one of the reasons to wear hypoallergenic jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e————————————————————————\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSTAINLESS STEEL\u003cbr\u003eStainless steel jewelry is strong, durable and rust-resistant. It typically has a silver sheen, but, unlike silver, it will not corrode and it is not susceptible to scratches, dings or dents. 316L stainless steel jewelry is the most fashionable ornament in the category of stainless steel jewelry. It’s advantageous due to the composition of molybdenum elements that improve its resistance to harsh conditions and high temperatures. People opt for 316L stainless steel jewelry because of its exceptional tensile strength.\u003cbr\u003eThe wear and tear of the 316L reduce due to its anti-oxidation properties such that it can stand against sulfuric acid, nitric acid, seawater, and the extreme outer atmosphere.\u003cbr\u003eHYPOALLERGENIC - YES\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSTERLING SILVER\u003cbr\u003eSterling Silver is pure silver alloyed with copper which is 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper. This percentage of fine silver is why you will sometimes see sterling silver referred to as '925 silver' or hallmarked with a 925 stamp. The copper makes the silver harder, more durable and therefore much better to work with and use, but without compromising on color. Most silver jewelry that you buy and wear will be sterling silver.\u003cbr\u003eHYPOALLERGENIC - YES\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCOPPER\u003cbr\u003eCopper is a pure element that is often used in jewelry.

This is the green\/blue color change often seen in uncoated copper.\u003cbr\u003eJewelry makers usually choose between copper or nickel as the base metal\/alloy.

What causes brass to tarnish is the copper within the metal.

Nickel is a common allergy and almost 15% of the population is allergic to nickel. Nickel can be found in many products that touch skin, ranging from earring posts, body jewelry, eyeglass frames, watchbands, button, zippers, and costume jewelry, to basic hair pins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat is hypoallergenic jewelry?\u003cbr\u003eHypoallergenic jewelry is jewelry that is made out of pure metals such as platinum, 18k gold, titanium, copper, and stainless steel, fine silver and sterling silver. Hypoallergenic jewelry means that there is minimal risk of causing an allergic reaction. Most hypo-allergic jewelry contains pure metals such as platinum, gold, titanium, copper, and stainless steel, fine silver, and sterling silver. However, softer metals like gold and silver will have other metals alloyed with them or plated over a stronger base metal. These types of jewelry are suitable for those who experience allergic reactions to nickel. The safest alternative to metal is medical-grade plastic earrings and keeping your ski safe is just one of the reasons to wear hypoallergenic jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e————————————————————————\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSTAINLESS STEEL\u003cbr\u003eStainless steel jewelry is strong, durable and rust-resistant. It typically has a silver sheen, but, unlike silver, it will not corrode and it is not susceptible to scratches, dings or dents. 316L stainless steel jewelry is the most fashionable ornament in the category of stainless steel jewelry. It’s advantageous due to the composition of molybdenum elements that improve its resistance to harsh conditions and high temperatures. People opt for 316L stainless steel jewelry because of its exceptional tensile strength.\u003cbr\u003eThe wear and tear of the 316L reduce due to its anti-oxidation properties such that it can stand against sulfuric acid, nitric acid, seawater, and the extreme outer atmosphere.\u003cbr\u003eHYPOALLERGENIC - YES\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSTERLING SILVER\u003cbr\u003eSterling Silver is pure silver alloyed with copper which is 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper. This percentage of fine silver is why you will sometimes see sterling silver referred to as '925 silver' or hallmarked with a 925 stamp.

Nickel is a common allergy and almost 15% of the population is allergic to nickel. Nickel can be found in many products that touch skin, ranging from earring posts, body jewelry, eyeglass frames, watchbands, button, zippers, and costume jewelry, to basic hair pins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat is hypoallergenic jewelry?\u003cbr\u003eHypoallergenic jewelry is jewelry that is made out of pure metals such as platinum, 18k gold, titanium, copper, and stainless steel, fine silver and sterling silver. Hypoallergenic jewelry means that there is minimal risk of causing an allergic reaction. Most hypo-allergic jewelry contains pure metals such as platinum, gold, titanium, copper, and stainless steel, fine silver, and sterling silver. However, softer metals like gold and silver will have other metals alloyed with them or plated over a stronger base metal. These types of jewelry are suitable for those who experience allergic reactions to nickel. The safest alternative to metal is medical-grade plastic earrings and keeping your ski safe is just one of the reasons to wear hypoallergenic jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e————————————————————————\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSTAINLESS STEEL\u003cbr\u003eStainless steel jewelry is strong, durable and rust-resistant. It typically has a silver sheen, but, unlike silver, it will not corrode and it is not susceptible to scratches, dings or dents. 316L stainless steel jewelry is the most fashionable ornament in the category of stainless steel jewelry. It’s advantageous due to the composition of molybdenum elements that improve its resistance to harsh conditions and high temperatures. People opt for 316L stainless steel jewelry because of its exceptional tensile strength.\u003cbr\u003eThe wear and tear of the 316L reduce due to its anti-oxidation properties such that it can stand against sulfuric acid, nitric acid, seawater, and the extreme outer atmosphere.\u003cbr\u003eHYPOALLERGENIC - YES\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSTERLING SILVER\u003cbr\u003eSterling Silver is pure silver alloyed with copper which is 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper. This percentage of fine silver is why you will sometimes see sterling silver referred to as '925 silver' or hallmarked with a 925 stamp.

Nickel is a common allergy and almost 15% of the population is allergic to nickel. Nickel can be found in many products that touch skin, ranging from earring posts, body jewelry, eyeglass frames, watchbands, button, zippers, and costume jewelry, to basic hair pins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat is hypoallergenic jewelry?\u003cbr\u003eHypoallergenic jewelry is jewelry that is made out of pure metals such as platinum, 18k gold, titanium, copper, and stainless steel, fine silver and sterling silver. Hypoallergenic jewelry means that there is minimal risk of causing an allergic reaction. Most hypo-allergic jewelry contains pure metals such as platinum, gold, titanium, copper, and stainless steel, fine silver, and sterling silver. However, softer metals like gold and silver will have other metals alloyed with them or plated over a stronger base metal. These types of jewelry are suitable for those who experience allergic reactions to nickel. The safest alternative to metal is medical-grade plastic earrings and keeping your ski safe is just one of the reasons to wear hypoallergenic jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e————————————————————————\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSTAINLESS STEEL\u003cbr\u003eStainless steel jewelry is strong, durable and rust-resistant. It typically has a silver sheen, but, unlike silver, it will not corrode and it is not susceptible to scratches, dings or dents. 316L stainless steel jewelry is the most fashionable ornament in the category of stainless steel jewelry. It’s advantageous due to the composition of molybdenum elements that improve its resistance to harsh conditions and high temperatures. People opt for 316L stainless steel jewelry because of its exceptional tensile strength.\u003cbr\u003eThe wear and tear of the 316L reduce due to its anti-oxidation properties such that it can stand against sulfuric acid, nitric acid, seawater, and the extreme outer atmosphere.\u003cbr\u003eHYPOALLERGENIC - YES\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSTERLING SILVER\u003cbr\u003eSterling Silver is pure silver alloyed with copper which is 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper. This percentage of fine silver is why you will sometimes see sterling silver referred to as '925 silver' or hallmarked with a 925 stamp. The copper makes the silver harder, more durable and therefore much better to work with and use, but without compromising on color. Most silver jewelry that you buy and wear will be sterling silver.\u003cbr\u003eHYPOALLERGENIC - YES\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCOPPER\u003cbr\u003eCopper is a pure element that is often used in jewelry. The hardness of copper allows for easy manipulation, so it is great for wrapping, stamping and more. While this metal is corrosion resistant, it does form a patina with time and use. This is the green\/blue color change often seen in uncoated copper.\u003cbr\u003eJewelry makers usually choose between copper or nickel as the base metal\/alloy.

What causes brass to tarnish is the copper within the metal. When copper comes into contact with your skin it’s very common for it to oxidize, and if you’re allergic to brass or have really sensitive skin the oxidation can sometimes turn your skin green.

Hypoallergenic jewelry means that there is minimal risk of causing an allergic reaction. Most hypo-allergic jewelry contains pure metals such as platinum, gold, titanium, copper, and stainless steel, fine silver, and sterling silver. However, softer metals like gold and silver will have other metals alloyed with them or plated over a stronger base metal.

Nickel is a common allergy and almost 15% of the population is allergic to nickel. Nickel can be found in many products that touch skin, ranging from earring posts, body jewelry, eyeglass frames, watchbands, button, zippers, and costume jewelry, to basic hair pins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat is hypoallergenic jewelry?\u003cbr\u003eHypoallergenic jewelry is jewelry that is made out of pure metals such as platinum, 18k gold, titanium, copper, and stainless steel, fine silver and sterling silver. Hypoallergenic jewelry means that there is minimal risk of causing an allergic reaction. Most hypo-allergic jewelry contains pure metals such as platinum, gold, titanium, copper, and stainless steel, fine silver, and sterling silver. However, softer metals like gold and silver will have other metals alloyed with them or plated over a stronger base metal. These types of jewelry are suitable for those who experience allergic reactions to nickel. The safest alternative to metal is medical-grade plastic earrings and keeping your ski safe is just one of the reasons to wear hypoallergenic jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e————————————————————————\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSTAINLESS STEEL\u003cbr\u003eStainless steel jewelry is strong, durable and rust-resistant. It typically has a silver sheen, but, unlike silver, it will not corrode and it is not susceptible to scratches, dings or dents. 316L stainless steel jewelry is the most fashionable ornament in the category of stainless steel jewelry. It’s advantageous due to the composition of molybdenum elements that improve its resistance to harsh conditions and high temperatures. People opt for 316L stainless steel jewelry because of its exceptional tensile strength.\u003cbr\u003eThe wear and tear of the 316L reduce due to its anti-oxidation properties such that it can stand against sulfuric acid, nitric acid, seawater, and the extreme outer atmosphere.\u003cbr\u003eHYPOALLERGENIC - YES\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSTERLING SILVER\u003cbr\u003eSterling Silver is pure silver alloyed with copper which is 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper. This percentage of fine silver is why you will sometimes see sterling silver referred to as '925 silver' or hallmarked with a 925 stamp.

Nickel is a common allergy and almost 15% of the population is allergic to nickel. Nickel can be found in many products that touch skin, ranging from earring posts, body jewelry, eyeglass frames, watchbands, button, zippers, and costume jewelry, to basic hair pins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat is hypoallergenic jewelry?\u003cbr\u003eHypoallergenic jewelry is jewelry that is made out of pure metals such as platinum, 18k gold, titanium, copper, and stainless steel, fine silver and sterling silver. Hypoallergenic jewelry means that there is minimal risk of causing an allergic reaction. Most hypo-allergic jewelry contains pure metals such as platinum, gold, titanium, copper, and stainless steel, fine silver, and sterling silver. However, softer metals like gold and silver will have other metals alloyed with them or plated over a stronger base metal. These types of jewelry are suitable for those who experience allergic reactions to nickel. The safest alternative to metal is medical-grade plastic earrings and keeping your ski safe is just one of the reasons to wear hypoallergenic jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e————————————————————————\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSTAINLESS STEEL\u003cbr\u003eStainless steel jewelry is strong, durable and rust-resistant. It typically has a silver sheen, but, unlike silver, it will not corrode and it is not susceptible to scratches, dings or dents. 316L stainless steel jewelry is the most fashionable ornament in the category of stainless steel jewelry. It’s advantageous due to the composition of molybdenum elements that improve its resistance to harsh conditions and high temperatures. People opt for 316L stainless steel jewelry because of its exceptional tensile strength.\u003cbr\u003eThe wear and tear of the 316L reduce due to its anti-oxidation properties such that it can stand against sulfuric acid, nitric acid, seawater, and the extreme outer atmosphere.\u003cbr\u003eHYPOALLERGENIC - YES\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSTERLING SILVER\u003cbr\u003eSterling Silver is pure silver alloyed with copper which is 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper. This percentage of fine silver is why you will sometimes see sterling silver referred to as '925 silver' or hallmarked with a 925 stamp. The copper makes the silver harder, more durable and therefore much better to work with and use, but without compromising on color.

That’s why you should wear and store your pieces in a way that minimizes any contact with other items that can damage your stainless steel jewelry. If your jewelry does get scratched, you can always have it professionally polished by a jeweler. Store your stainless steel pieces separately from jewelry made of other metals. It is best if you keep your stainless steel items in individual bags or pouches.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maverlydesigns","offers":[{"title":"Gold","offer_id":43769980223716,"sku":"DB-G004","price":3.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Silver","offer_id":43769980256484,"sku":"DB-S004","price":3.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0628\/4961\/4052\/products\/e8ad8d_7f2b0398966c4863b341125ab4ac86b7_mv2.jpg?v=1696427753"},{"product_id":"thin-teardrop-bezel-10-pieces","title":"Thin Teardrop Bezel - 10 PIECES","description":"\u003cp\u003eSIZE 32x22mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJEWELRY COMPONENTS\u003cbr\u003eJewelry Components from Maverly Designs are hypoallergenic.

Nickel is a common allergy and almost 15% of the population is allergic to nickel. Nickel can be found in many products that touch skin, ranging from earring posts, body jewelry, eyeglass frames, watchbands, button, zippers, and costume jewelry, to basic hair pins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat is hypoallergenic jewelry?\u003cbr\u003eHypoallergenic jewelry is jewelry that is made out of pure metals such as platinum, 18k gold, titanium, copper, and stainless steel, fine silver and sterling silver. Hypoallergenic jewelry means that there is minimal risk of causing an allergic reaction. Most hypo-allergic jewelry contains pure metals such as platinum, gold, titanium, copper, and stainless steel, fine silver, and sterling silver. However, softer metals like gold and silver will have other metals alloyed with them or plated over a stronger base metal. These types of jewelry are suitable for those who experience allergic reactions to nickel. The safest alternative to metal is medical-grade plastic earrings and keeping your ski safe is just one of the reasons to wear hypoallergenic jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e————————————————————————\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSTAINLESS STEEL\u003cbr\u003eStainless steel jewelry is strong, durable and rust-resistant. It typically has a silver sheen, but, unlike silver, it will not corrode and it is not susceptible to scratches, dings or dents. 316L stainless steel jewelry is the most fashionable ornament in the category of stainless steel jewelry. It’s advantageous due to the composition of molybdenum elements that improve its resistance to harsh conditions and high temperatures. People opt for 316L stainless steel jewelry because of its exceptional tensile strength.\u003cbr\u003eThe wear and tear of the 316L reduce due to its anti-oxidation properties such that it can stand against sulfuric acid, nitric acid, seawater, and the extreme outer atmosphere.\u003cbr\u003eHYPOALLERGENIC - YES\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSTERLING SILVER\u003cbr\u003eSterling Silver is pure silver alloyed with copper which is 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper. This percentage of fine silver is why you will sometimes see sterling silver referred to as '925 silver' or hallmarked with a 925 stamp. The copper makes the silver harder, more durable and therefore much better to work with and use, but without compromising on color. Most silver jewelry that you buy and wear will be sterling silver.\u003cbr\u003eHYPOALLERGENIC - YES\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCOPPER\u003cbr\u003eCopper is a pure element that is often used in jewelry. The hardness of copper allows for easy manipulation, so it is great for wrapping, stamping and more. While this metal is corrosion resistant, it does form a patina with time and use. This is the green\/blue color change often seen in uncoated copper.\u003cbr\u003eJewelry makers usually choose between copper or nickel as the base metal\/alloy. When the alloy is made with copper, this combination allows for the perfect balance of hardness, versatility and that famous shine. \u003cbr\u003eHYPOALLERGENIC - YES\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBRASS\u003cbr\u003eBrass is a metal alloy of copper and zinc, used for its long wear and bright, gold-like appearance much like bronze. Over time it may oxidize to a green color (patina).\u003cbr\u003eAll brass naturally tarnishes over time, which gives it that organic and unique look that we all love. What causes brass to tarnish is the copper within the metal. When copper comes into contact with your skin it’s very common for it to oxidize, and if you’re allergic to brass or have really sensitive skin the oxidation can sometimes turn your skin green. If that’s the case, I recommend wearing sterling silver or gold instead.\u003cbr\u003eHYPOALLERGENIC - NO\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e————————————————————————\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTarnished metals are caused by a number of common and natural chemicals, like sulfur (found in air particles around cities\/industrial areas), moisture (if you live in a more humid environment), chlorine ( swimming in pools or spas), and your own skin’s acidity level (some people's skin PH is so high silver tarnishes almost instantly!).

It is made this way to accommodate those who prefer to bend their earring posts for back of ear comfort. Some earring post may have a slight bend post shipment but the buyer can simply move it into desired angle for their customers. I have yet to receive any customers who have had a post break. I personally have tested the durability of the posts and have found them to be flexible enough and strong enough for even the most sensitive wearers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maverlydesigns","offers":[{"title":"Gold","offer_id":43769980322020,"sku":"DB-G011","price":3.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Silver","offer_id":43769980354788,"sku":"DB-S011","price":3.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0628\/4961\/4052\/products\/e8ad8d_e01a69f7b12444418093b1b13d6775fb_mv2.jpg?v=1696432465"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0628\/4961\/4052\/collections\/Sale_3.png?v=1753281767","url":"https:\/\/maverlydesigns.com\/en-gb\/collections\/silver-gold.oembed?page=2","provider":"Maverlydesigns","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
