Rhodium Plated Ruby Red Petite Royal Oval Earrings

Highlights

• Rhodium plated finish sits over a lead-free alloy (brass) base rather than solid metal.
• Red stones sit within a petite oval design.
• Lead-free alloy construction avoids the metal most commonly restricted in jewelry.

Good to Know

• Rhodium plating gives the piece a silvertone finish without the cost of solid metal.
• The lead-free alloy base is formulated without lead, a metal restricted in jewelry.
• The red stones and petite oval shape offer a defined, compact look.
• The plating sits over an alloy base, so the finish can wear down over time with heavy use.
• No stone carat weight or setting type is specified, so shoppers wanting that detail won't find it here.

Frequently Asked Questions

What metal is used in these earrings?

The earrings are made from a lead-free alloy (brass) base with a rhodium plated, silvertone finish. This means the surface you see and touch is the plating rather than solid rhodium metal.

What color are the stones on these earrings?

The earrings feature stones in a red color. The oval shape and petite scale of the design put the red stones at the visual center of each earring.

How should I care for these earrings?

Because the earrings have a plated finish over a lead-free alloy base, they should be kept dry and stored away from other jewelry to avoid scratching the plating. Avoid contact with perfume, lotion, or water where possible.
