Hand crafted horn ear hanger earring. Unique design, a bold tribal look.
These are a little thicker than a normal earring and some may need lubrication to insert. Moisturiser is useful in such cases.
For those of you that have worn thicker studs at 1.6mm or just heavy earrings, these should be fine.
Many people prefer horn because it is a natural substance and it absorbs moisture away from the skin (Not as much as wood but it is better than metal or acrylic).Less moisture means less bacterial and fungal bugs in your lobes. Less bugs means less irritation, itching and of course, less smell.
Buffalo horn is composed of Keratin, the same natural protein that our fingernails are made from and is very well tolerated in lobe piercings.
Please check the sizes shown.
These items are hand made from natural horn and therefore the sizes may vary slightly from those stated.
Each item is unique, natural and hand made and so may differ slightly from the photograph in the listing. You will understand that these are not churned out by factory machines and so every item will be slightly different and unique. That's why we love them.
Please only wear horn jewellery in piercings that have fully healed. If you react to any item of body jewellery then your body is telling you to stop wearing it, so take it out. Unfortunately this is hard to predict so use your common sense and listen to your body.
These natural items are not suitable for autoclaving or boiling.
