- Are these real gold or gold plated?
- They are 14K solid gold, stamped as such, not a gold-plated base metal. That matters for kids who wear earrings daily and for ears that react to plating.
- Will screw backs stay on an active child?
- Yes, that is the main reason parents choose them. The threaded post and screw-on back hold far better than push-backs, though they take a few extra seconds to fasten.
- How big are the earrings?
- Each stud is about 0.16 inches (roughly 4mm) across. They are sized for children's earlobes and look very small on an adult.
- Are they safe for sensitive ears?
- They are labeled nickel free and made of 14K gold, which most sensitive ears tolerate well. Anyone with a known metal allergy should still check with a doctor first.
- Is the crystal a real birthstone?
- No. It is a Swarovski crystal in the December birthstone color, not a blue topaz or tanzanite. It gives the look of a birthstone without the gemstone.
- What comes in the box?
- You get the pair of earrings with their screw backs. Tiny Blessings typically packages them for gifting, which suits a birth or birthday present.
- Where is the Tiny Blessings 14K Gold Crystal Birthstone Screw Back Earrings - December cheapest?
- At Nordstrom, for $156.00, as of our latest check.
