PVD or 316LVM surgical steel N/A 2mm bandwidth Lobes! Cuff earrings are sold as pairs. The Thin Plain 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 or implant grade titanium! This grade of steel is hypoallergenic because it is 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 steel is 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 the blackline titanium option. Titanium is hypoallergenic and bio-compatible. Its often used in medical implants because of these traits. The black is titanium carbide as a physical vapour deposition (PVD) coating. The titanium carbide is deposited onto the titanium as a vapour. This coating is hypoallergenic. The yellow and rose gold options are PVD. PVD is more durable and therefore lasts longer than traditional plating. The plating may irritate metal allergies. These Thin Plain Cuff Earrings are 18g and fit comfortably in any standard ear piercing. Please check the diameter to ensure they will fit your lobes.
