EXTRA INFORMATION

HANDY TIP

Please wear the earring stoppers provided on all of the hook style earrings. These are a little clear cap that you slide onto the hook once in your ear and is not visible. Unfortunately we are not able to supply single replacements for lost earrings. 

NATURAL

Due to the nature of cork, leather and wood being natural materials, there will be variations in surface texture, grain, tone and pattern position. This is something to celebrate as it adds a unique character to your earrings as no two pairs will be exactly the same. Being made from natural materials, then with wear of your earrings, overtime some fibres may work themselves to the edge. These can be carefully pulled away or snipped closely with some scissors. 

CARE

Keep your earrings somewhere clean and dry, out of direct sunlight. Keep away from oil, liquid, moisturiser, sprays and make up as this could cause discolouration and affect longevity. Get yourself ready first and then your earrings should be the last thing you put on, like the icing on the cake!  

Do not wear in water. We advise that you take off your earrings before showering, bathing and swimming to prolong their use.

CORK

The cork we use to make our earrings is from cork oak and no trees are cut down to create this. Once the cork oak tree has matured, the bark is carefully stripped by a skilled harvester and the tree is left to continue to grow. The cork oak tree commonly lives to 200 years old and the bark can be stripped many times during its life. How incredible is that!

LEATHER

The leather we use to make our earrings is high quality genuine real Italian leather. Leather is strong yet soft and comfortable to wear, which makes it a very versatile natural material. Leather has had an increase in popularity in recent times as we are turning to natural based materials over plastic. Faux leather and vegan leather is made of plastic. As a brand we want to keep plastic to a minimum and believe it is much better to use natural materials where we can.

HALLMARKED STERLING SILVER OR GOLD HARDWARE

Lluminear earrings are made from the finest quality hardware with all hooks, hoops and stud posts/backs being made from hallmarked 925 sterling silver or 14ct gold and carry the hallmark stamp to prove their genuine quality. 

Solid gold is very expensive, so the next best thing is gold filled, which means they are coated in real 14ct gold instead. Gold is very hard wearing and does not rub off or tarnish over time. 

925 Sterling silver means that they contain 92.5% silver. As silver is too soft to be used in its pure form then it has to be mixed with another metal which makes up the other 7.5%. Sterling Silver will naturally tarnish over time, you can easily bring the shine back by buffing it with a polishing cloth. Be warned, it is quite addictive, and you’ll want to polish all your silver Jewellery. Keep shining!

If it isn't hallmarked then it isn't genuine. Be aware of descriptions out there such as 'gold', 'silver', ‘gold plated’ and even ‘sterling silver plated’. These may look the same to the untrained eye but are merely just the colour silver or gold and not real silver/gold. They are not genuine and only include a very miniscule layer of silver/gold (in some cases just 1%) over a base metal of copper, nickel or a metal mix. Because the top layer is so thin it will wear off easily and can irritate your ears. We only use hallmarked hooks, hoops and studs at Lluminear so you can be assured you are getting a quality pair of earrings. 

LLUMINEAR was founded by

a girl with a big dream

I'm Sarah and I'm obsessed with earrings. I Iive in Cornwall with my husband and little boy and work from my garden studio of dreams. It's my happy place and still pinch myself that I get to create earrings for my job.

ever since i was little

i loved earrings!

...and was excited to get my ears pierced at the age of 13, so I could wear all the pretty. However I soon discovered that I had sensitive ears and could only wear real gold or silver. As a teenager this was of course devastating! The only options were really boring and bland as all the fun ones were made with cheap metals that irritated my ears; I know you know what I mean.

Fast forward a fair few years and I was still struggling to find fun earrings that I could wear, so I had this crazy idea of making my own. This idea, this niggle, this dream, I just couldn't shift it. 

I was just obsessed with earrings and it was this passion that pushed me to be brave, to dream a little bigger and to take that scary step and share my earring creations with the world. I started wearing them out and about and showed them to my friends who went a bit mad over them and wanted some too and so LLUMINEAR was born.
