All about my wooden earrings

How to choose the shape and fastening of your earrings?

The choice depends as much on the desired style as on the type of fastening you feel most comfortable with.

Studs and posts are simple and quick to put on and are held in place by a clasp at the back. Leverback earrings close completely: they offer a very good hold and are particularly suitable if you are afraid of losing your earrings. Very light thanks to the wood and secured by their closing system, they can also be an interesting choice for a child's first earrings, provided the child is old enough to wear this type of jewelry.

Continuous hoops are inserted directly into the piercing before closing on themselves. Putting them on may require a little practice at first, but the movement quickly becomes natural: simply pinch the hoop gently to close it.

Chain earrings are particularly easy to put on once you get the hang of it: they simply slide through the piercing and require no clasp. The sensation of the chain passing through may be surprising at first, but you get used to it very quickly. Very light, they naturally follow movements.

Size can also guide your choice. With long, thick, or curly hair, larger or more prominent models stand out more. With short or tied-back hair, small earrings are naturally more visible and allow you to choose both discreet models and more assertive shapes.

Finally, each model is available in different wood types: the shape gives the jewelry its look, while the wood gives it its color and character.

Are wooden earrings heavy?

No, and that's one of the great advantages of wood. Naturally lightweight, it allows for the creation of wooden earrings of various sizes while maintaining a comfortable wear.

Even large hoops and more substantial designs remain light and pleasant to wear daily, without unnecessarily weighing down the earlobe.

How to wear multi-position ear chains?

Ear chains simply slide through the piercing and require no clasp. The sensation of the chain passing through may be surprising at first, but you quickly get used to it and they then become particularly easy to put on.

Very light, they naturally follow your movements and bring fluidity to the jewel. Their multi-position system allows you to play with the length and, if you have several holes, to pass them through one, two or three piercings to vary how they are worn.

A pair of silicone stoppers is systematically added to the order. If you're afraid of losing your earrings, simply slide them onto the chain and hide them behind your ear to further secure them.

Can I buy a single earring?

Yes. The wooden earrings are offered in pairs on the shop, but it is entirely possible to order a single earring upon request, whether for a single piercing, to create a mismatched composition, or to replace a lost earring.

If you have lost one of your earrings, simply send me a photo of the one you still have. I will search among the available woods in the workshop for a piece whose shade and grain best match your original earring. As wood is a natural material, it will never be perfectly identical, but the goal is to recreate as harmonious a pair as possible.

Can I buy just the wooden tassels or charms?

Yes. If you already own a pair of Racines Artisanat earrings, you can order just the wooden drops or charms upon request, without having to repurchase the fastenings.

This allows you to keep your hoops or fastenings and simply change the wooden part: a different shape, a new type of wood, or a different pair of drops according to your desires. The same fastening can thus accompany several creations and allow your earrings to evolve over time.

Simply contact me, indicating the model you own and the desired drops or charms. I can then show you the possibilities and types of wood available in the workshop.

Can a piece of jewelry be refurbished several years after purchase?

Yes. Many years after your purchase, I can sand and refresh the finish of your jewelry for free to restore its shine. Simply contact me to request this service.
