GOLD PLATING:

We offer gold plating only on selected sterling silver products on our website. Please note that all gold plating will wear off over time depending on specific wear and contact with your skin. This is the nature of gold plating.

We do not offer gold plating on chains as the finish and wear is inconsistent. Additionally, we cannot re-plate any chains.

We suggest considering solid 9ct Gold if you would like a consistent and tarnish free gold look.

The reason I got my ears pierced!

Tropical Safari came into the world and it was my reason to get my ears pieced at age 31! They are such fun and you can change them up everyday and keep on adding to new charms!

Simple but quirky :)

I love my tiny bee studs! When I am looking for something super simple, but still with some fun and flair, these are my go-to earrings. They are such fun and always get some great compliments!
