Brand new, never worn sterling silver earrings from Madewell. Crafted from 14k gold over sterling silver, the pieces in the Delicate Collection are future keepsakes meant to be layered and worn every single day (think of them as your jewelry BFFs). These slender X-shaped stud earrings mix in perfectly with your other faves. 9 1/2 mm x 12 1/2 mm. Sterling silver. Sterling silver posts are naturally soft due to the high silver content (just bend 'em back into shape if they get out of whack). Clean your jewelry after each wearing with a soft cloth.
