FAQ
What is polymer clay?
Polymer clay is based on the polymer polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and is a highly versatile modeling material. One of its key characteristics is how malleable it is, making it easy to reshape or make alterations. After polymer clay pieces have been modeled, they can be baked, cooled, and then sanded, polished, drilled, and glazed. It is an extremely lightweight material, and unlike ceramic or porcelain, it doesn’t shatter when dropped.
2. Are Polymer Clay Earrings lightweight?
Yes! Polymer clay earrings are lightweight and will not weigh your earlobes down or cause long-term damage. On average, polymer clay earrings are lighter than regular earrings.
P.S.: Earrings with a metal accent will be slightly heavier.
3. Does polymer clay earring shrink or expand over time?
Polymer clay earrings will not shrink or expand once they have been cured.
4. I have sensitive ears. Can I wear them?
Most of our earrings are gold plated or made of stainless steel. All of our earring accessories are nickel-free and hypoallergenic, making them suitable for those with sensitive ears.
5. Are polymer clay earrings waterproof?
Polymer clay is water-resistant but not waterproof. We recommend avoiding prolonged contact with water to maintain the longevity of your earrings.
6. How to store the earrings? Will they break easily?
Polymer clay doesn’t shatter when dropped (unlike ceramic or porcelain). Because the material is versatile and can be drilled or sanded after baking without falling apart, it is resilient enough for various finishing touches. Although excessive bending might cause tension on surface in spite of being flexible. So we recommend storing them in a cool dry place in a small box where it won’t be damaged due to other surfaces.
