{"product_id":"chain-link-stud-earrings","title":"Chain Link Stud Earrings in Plated Brass with Steel Posts","description":"\u003cp\u003eTwo chunky chain links locked together and fixed to a post: these chain link stud earrings are 3\/4 inch long and made in plated brass with surgical steel posts. Knotty offers them in 14k gold plate, rose gold plate and rhodium plate, so the same shape works with whatever metal you already wear most.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurb link shape.\u003c\/strong\u003e Each link is slightly flattened and twisted, the way a curb chain is, so the faces catch light at an angle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteel posts.\u003c\/strong\u003e The part that goes through the ear is surgical steel, not the plated brass of the links.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree finishes.\u003c\/strong\u003e Yellow, pink or bright white, chosen from the selector above.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShort and bold.\u003c\/strong\u003e At 3\/4 inch, they look substantial without swinging.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eChain Earrings Without the Dangle\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChain earrings usually hang: a length of chain from a hook, swaying with every step. This pair turns the chain into a stud, two links stacked on the lobe and staying put. \u003cstrong\u003eYou get the weight and confidence of a chain piece in a size that works from morning meetings to late dinners.\u003c\/strong\u003e They pair naturally with a curb chain necklace or bracelet, and they hold their own with a plain tee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe links have rounded, gently beveled faces, so on gold plate they glow warm, on rose gold they read softly pink, and on rhodium they flash bright white, close to how platinum or white gold looks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePicking Between Three Plated Finishes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStart with the jewelry you wear daily. A watch or rings in yellow metal point to the 14k gold plated pair; mixed metals or a warm wardrobe of camel, blush and cream point to rose gold; a silver watch or white gold rings point to rhodium. \u003cstrong\u003eRhodium is a platinum family metal, prized as a plating because it is hard and very white.\u003c\/strong\u003e It is often the plating on white gold rings for exactly that reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlating is a thin layer, and how long it lasts depends on care. Keep these studs dry, put them on after makeup and perfume, and give them a separate pocket in your jewelry box so the links do not scrape a neighbor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eClassic Chain Studs and Their Finish\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does gold plated jewelry last?\u003c\/strong\u003e On earrings, which rub against far less than rings or bracelets do, plating can look new for a long time when the pair stays dry and is wiped after wearing. Water, sweat and chemicals are what shorten it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the plating rub off on my skin?\u003c\/strong\u003e No; plating is bonded to the brass and does not transfer. What can happen with heavy wear is a gradual lighter patch where the metal underneath begins to show.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat do chain link studs go with?\u003c\/strong\u003e Anything with a chain in it, from a curb necklace to a watch on a link bracelet, plus crisp shirts and fine knits. They also give a plain tee and jeans a finished look with no other jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Knotty","offers":[{"title":"Gold","offer_id":67646976327981,"sku":"793611951594","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rose Gold","offer_id":67646976885037,"sku":"793611951617","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rhodium","offer_id":67646976917805,"sku":"793611951600","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0667\/4553\/2717\/files\/knotty-chain-link-stud-earrings-1.jpg?v=1792003175","url":"https:\/\/aysire.com\/products\/chain-link-stud-earrings","provider":"Aysire","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
