- Are screw-back earrings safe for babies?
- Screw backs are the usual choice for babies because the threaded back must be turned off rather than pulled. Check the backs are fully screwed on before a child sleeps or plays.
- Is the sterling silver nickel free?
- The earrings are described as nickel free sterling silver. Sterling silver itself is an alloy, so ask the seller for the exact composition if your child has reacted to silver before.
- How big is the cross?
- The cross measures about 6mm, a small size meant for babies and toddlers. It sits close to the earlobe rather than dangling.
- Can these be worn every day?
- Yes, but sterling silver tarnishes with exposure to water, sweat and lotion. Remove them for baths and swimming and polish them to keep the shine.
- Are they a good first-earring gift?
- They work well as a first pair or a christening gift because the cross design is simple and the screw backs are secure. Pair them with a small jewelry box for gifting.
