Opening The Box
INK+ALLOY subscribers can look forward to their earrings arriving in a small white box, typically with their name written on the front. Typically there's a card included that offers information about INK+ALLOY's charitable giving and care instructions for your new earrings and a cute quote to get you excited about your delivery.
Here's What's Inside
Info Card
Short and sweet, but powerful—I love the wording that "these accessories were made by human hands," as it really brings me present to a visual of that maker's hands and makes me appreciate what I have in front of me all the more. It advises against getting the earrings wet. It doesn't say this specifically on the card, but this pair is made of recycled brass, which could tarnish over time, but it won't rust. Either way, good to take care of them.
Gretchen Oval Circle Earrings, Brass — Retail Value $45
Circles and ovals are stacked on this dangly pair, and the way the shapes interact reminds me of a rock cairn. So pretty. I also like how the way each circle and oval is able to tilt a little bit, independently of the pieces above or below it, letting the light play on them so eye-catchingly. I received the brass pair, but they also come in silver.
It's earrings every day in my world, and I found that tossing this pair on with a T-shirt felt great. There's no question that they can be dressed up, too.
The Verdict
INK+ALLOY switched it up and sent a recycled brass pair this month. While I can never have too many beaded earrings, this was a nice change, and the stacks of circles and ovals are super glinty in the sun. Love!
