316LVM surgical steel N/A 12mm diameter, the design measures 4.9cm long. Lobes! Cuff earrings are sold as pairs. The Flame Cuff Earrings are a simple yet high-quality pair of earrings! They have a hinged clasp to hold them in place in your ear. Just click and go! These earrings are made with 316LVM surgical steel! 316LVM surgical steel is hypoallergenic because its low carbon vacuum melted. This process sucks out the nickel from the metal. Since nickel is one of the most common causes of metal allergies, this makes it hypoallergenic. Please note: this process cannot remove all the nickel. As a result, a small number of people react to 316LVM surgical steel. If this is you, we recommend going with the blackline option. The black is titanium carbide as a physical vapour deposition (PVD) coating. The titanium carbide is deposited onto the steel as a vapour. This process does not affect the piece's hypoallergenic status. PVD is more durable and therefore lasts longer than traditional plating. These Flame Cuff Earrings are 18g and will fit comfortably in any standard ear piercing. Please check the diameter to ensure they will fit around your lobes.
