Beautiful solid wood chunky hoop earrings

Another great purchase from arka I don’t buy anywhere else as the quality is great and the delivery fast.
This purchase was some lovely solid wood hoops for stretched ears I wasn’t sure of my exact size to bought 2 pairs in the end. The grain of the wood is beautiful the only negative is that they have a strong smell of either the polish or the wood sap when you first get them but I washed them and oil them with some coconut oil’s and it slowly goes away.
I have done this before with wooden ear plugs and spirals it works a treat :)

Exemplary service and products

The selection of jewellery is brilliant, and it's all excellent quality. I always get my orders promptly, and the packaging shows a real level of care. The purple packing paper and velvet jewellery bags are a beautiful touch.

Hi Jasmine, I am not sure if you are referring to a silver or brass item. Both will tarnish over time.

Silver can go black due to body chemistry, (sweat) or makeup or moisture. This is very common and can happen at different rates for different people. (Some peoples body chemistry can make it happen faster) Silver can be bought back to being shiny with a silver cloth. Please Google that.

Brass will also tarnish for the same reasons.. Brass can be cleaned and brought back to being shiny by using vinegar or lemon juice! There are also brass cleaning cloths available. Please Google keeping brass jewellery shiny.

Or read our page on how to care for silver and brass items;

Thanks for the review Jo!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Happy, thank you

Ordered some wooden Zulu rings size 00g. (For stretched ears).Arrived really quickly and nicely packaged. True to size. They are light and smooth finish. Had a bit of a job getting them in to start with. Require lots of jojoba oil and took a while to work out how to put them in (pull your ear down and go in with one corner then kind of massage them from the back of your ear). They need to go in at an angle. All in all pleased with my purchase and would buy from Arka again. Thank you.

Thanks for the review Ruth! Glad you got the rings in OK a bit of oil definitely helps if they are tight!
