Let's dive into the world of these charming cognac Amber studs – they're basically your go-to for everyday wear because, let me tell you, they're as light as a feather and oh-so-comfy! These earrings, with their delightful triangular design, draw inspiration from the mystical Celtic trefoil pattern. But here's the star of the show – a round piece of Baltic Amber takes centre stage, adding that touch of warmth and intrigue to your look.

Now, when it comes to keeping these beauties snug in your ears, we've got you covered with Sterling Silver stopper backs. It's important to note that these are for those with pierced ears only, so if you've got a bit of ear art going on, these are the studs you've been searching for. They measure approximately 10mm across, making them just the right size to make a statement without overwhelming your lobes.

Speaking of designs, let's chat about the Triquetra design that graces these stunning studs. It's not just a pretty pattern; it's got some deep symbolism going on. Originally stemming from ancient Pagan Celtic imagery, it found its way into Christianity. You might spot similarities with Odin's symbol, the valknut, too. It's a reminder of the rich tapestry of history and meaning that art can carry.

Now, let's explore a bit about the mysterious world of Amber. In Vienna, Amber factories take pale Amber and work their magic. They use it to craft pipes and other smoking tools, turning it on a lathe and giving it a polish with whitening and water, or if they want to go old-school, with rottenstone and oil. Here's the cool part – when you gently heat Amber in an oil bath, it becomes soft and flexible, which is handy for crafting intricate designs. If you've got cloudy Amber, fear not! An oil bath can help clarify it by filling those tiny pores that cause the cloudiness.

But here's a juicy tidbit – Amber has a bit of a poser problem. It's been imitated over the years by other resins like copal and kauri gum, not to mention celluloid and even glass. So, if you're rocking Amber, you're not just donning a gorgeous piece of jewelry; you're wearing a slice of history and a touch of nature's magic.

Shipping: The Glamorous World of Parcel Patience

Alright, my fellow sparkle enthusiasts, let's talk dispatch and delivery. Picture this: I’m a one-woman powerhouse, working tirelessly to bring you the finest jewellery. I aim to dispatch your glittering goodies the same day (because I'm just that efficient). But here's the kicker—being a boutique operation, my stock is as limited as my patience for non-sparkly things. Most of my treasures are shipped from my legion of talented smiths and suppliers to me on order.

UK Domestic Shipping: Fast but Fashionably Late

For my lovely UK-based customers, your sparkles will typically waltz their way to you in about 5-7 business days. Quick, but not quite instant gratification. I’m not Amazon! Think of it as joyous anticipation before the big reveal!

International Shipping: The Waiting Game

For my fabulous international friends, I need you to channel your inner zen master. Shipping times can vary wildly, anywhere from 5 to 30 business days. Why? Because customs clearance is a thing. Patience, darling. Good things (and sparkly ones) come to those who wait.

The delivery time cannot be guaranteed during the Holiday season, Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and at high-demand times. Any further delay at the destination countries is beyond my control. Buyers are responsible for any duties, customs charges, or VAT taxes that may occur.

Out of Stock? Not Out of Luck!

If the piece you’ve fallen in love with is out of stock, don’t fret! It’s available for order with a lead time of 4-10 weeks, depending on which of my brilliant suppliers is crafting your new favourite accessory. Just drop me a line about your heart's desire, and I’ll do my absolute best to meet your needs.

So, there you have it. Whether you’re waiting a few days or a few weeks, remember: great things (and truly fabulous jewellery) take time. Now, who’s ready to add a bit of sparkle to their life?

So, if you're all about embracing the beauty of the past while adding a touch of warmth and mystique to your style, these Amber studs are your perfect partners in crime! 💃✨
