These earrings are big & bold for maximum impact, lightweight for comfort and so very very shiny.
An age-old symbol in jewellery, variously signifying royalty (in ancient Egypt), wisdom, good fortune, good health & healing (ancient Greece), sexuality & temptation (Christianity), & fertility (Vodou), & was imbued with the sentiment of undying, eternal love from the Romans to the Victorians, particularly in circular form as the tail-devouring 'Ouroboros'.
Choose between Leather and a Plant-based version.
The Plant-based version is made using materials specially chosen to feel just as luxuriously tactile, lightweight & easy to wear as my Leather Jewels. The beautifully soft but durable surface is made from natural wood fibres, sourced from responsibly managed forests. This is mounted to a strong but lightweight base of eco-friendly bamboo. All products I use to colour, construct & finish these pieces are free of any animal derivatives and, to the best of my knowledge & research, have never been tested on animals.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Each piece of Rosita Bonita jewellery is handmade with much love and care, and we want it to stay looking it’s very best for you.
To help with this please take care to avoid getting your jewels wet, and limit exposure to moisturisers and perfumes.
Keep them in their original packaging when you’re not wearing them, especially if you are lucky enough to live in a hot & humid environment.
This applies to all pieces - whether Leather, Plant Based, or Gold Vermeil.
The chains & findings we use on all leather & plant-based pieces are gold plated and will lose their shiny plating with wear. If at any point you would like these to be renewed, or if your pieces become damaged, they can usually be returned for repair for a small fee, but please do contact us first.
We hope you and your new rosita bonita jewellery will be very happy together.

CUSTOMERS IN MAINLAND EUROPE :
Sadly the UK is no longer part of the EU, which means shipping is not as smooth as before. Your parcel will be subject to your country's customs procedures and, usually, customs charges, which are not included in the shipping charge on your order. Your parcel will be sent through UK Royal Mail, on a tracked service, and passed on to your national delivery service. Whilst the Royal Mail website still states that EU parcels are delivered in up to 5 working days, I have found that there can now be lengthy hold-ups in customs offices (especially in Madrid), so it is very hard to predict when your parcel will be delivered, or how much they will charge you in customs fees. If you have not received your parcel after 7 working days, please contact me and I will send you the tracking link.
CUSTOMERS IN U.S.A. & REST OF THE WORLD :
Your parcel should be with you in around a week from receipt of your shipping confirmation email. If you have not received it after 10 working days, please contact me.
USA customers are exempt from customs fees for imports under $800, but for most other countries your government will charge you a fee for importing goods from UK.
