FAQ
What is polymer clay?
Polymer clay is a lightweight, durable material that becomes strong and flexible once cured. It allows us to create statement pieces that remain comfortable for all-day wear. Each pair is individually shaped and finished in our Sunshine Coast studio.
What are your earring findings made from?
We use surgical-grade stainless steel (316L & 304L) with gold-plated finishes. These materials are selected for comfort, durability and a polished appearance.
Are your earrings hypoallergenic?
Yes — our stainless steel findings are hypoallergenic and suitable for most sensitive ears. While individual sensitivities can vary, we use high-quality materials designed to minimise irritation.
Do you offer shipping?
Yes — we offer free shipping Australia Wide
Are polymer clay earrings waterproof?
Polymer clay is water-resistant; however, we recommend removing earrings before swimming or showering to protect the metal findings and finishes.
