Hypoallergenic sterling silver earring findings are earring components made from sterling silver that are specifically designed to minimise the risk of causing an allergic reaction.
Sterling silver is an alloy made up of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals, usually copper. and to make sterling silver earring findings hypoallergenic, they are often coated with a thin layer of a protective material, such as rhodium or nickel-free plating. This coating acts as a barrier between the skin and the sterling silver, reducing the likelihood of an allergic reaction.
It is also worth noting that even hypoallergenic sterling silver earring findings may not be suitable for everyone, as individual sensitivities can vary.
At Daisy Meadow, we only use high quality Sterling Silver for our finding if requested, our default choice of metal for earring findings is 304 stainless steel.
