FAQs

All earrings are available in both pierced and non-pierced (clip-on) forms! You also don't need piercing to wear our bestselling ear cuffs. And most come in both gold and silver, with even a few in rose gold! Please note that clip-ons are not meant to be worn inside piercings or on piercings that are not fully closed/healed, but they can be worn anywhere else on the ear!

Plum Blossom Jewelry's ear cuffs are extremely dainty, delicate, and slightly different from others on the market! And you don't need pierced ears to wear them! Here are some tips on how to wear them correctly: Helix cuff: The longer, less-curvy part of the helix cuff should be behind your ear as the curviest part curls over your helix. Slip the cuff on at the thinnest part of your ear, and slide up to the helix where you want it to sit. (More tips below) Conch cuff: This ear cuff should sit at the middle of your ear, hugging from the back of your ear to the biggest divot (concha). Helix and Conch cuffs: Keep the opening of the cuff as small as possible so that it doesn’t come off, even with some roughhousing, but also large enough to not cause pain. If you get this happy medium, you should be able to slip the cuffs on and off without having to adjust them again. These should last you through hair whips, roller coasters, sleep, and anything in between (these are from real experiences from me and my customers!)! As for the braided cuff, you can bend it open and closed as you wish since it’s much more sturdy structure-wise, just be sure to close it on your ear tightly once it’s on.

Metals naturally tarnish, but with proper care, your earrings can stay shiny and beautiful for years! Here are some tips: 1. Limit exposure to water or humidity. Storing your earrings in resealable bags or anti-tarnish bags is ideal, especially if you live in a humid location! 2. Gently clean with a microfiber cloth or wet cotton swab between wears. Sweat and oils from our skin can cause jewelry to tarnish faster. 3. If you still see tarnishing and want to restore your jewelry's shine, let sit in ketchup (yes, ketchup!) for 5-15 minutes, rinse with water, and dry thoroughly. The acid in the ketchup reacts with tarnish, but is not harsh enough to damage your jewelry.

Because the spring-backed hoops that we use are the best option for both security and comfort, they can start to pinch after several hours of wear. Some people feel no pain at all, and some get sore ears after a while. However, the more frequently you wear your clip-ons, the less they should bug you, and eventually you'll be able to wear them for entire days with no pain! It is a bit of a time investment if you are one of those who needs to build up tolerance, but it's worth it to have gorgeous earrings you won't lose after a day out.
