These creatures lived in the seas between 240 - 65 million years ago when they became extinct along with the dinosaurs. The name ‘Ammonite’ originates from the Greek Zeus Ammon, the ram - horned god. AMMONITE MEANING: The Ammonite draws off all negative energies. Think of the Ammonite spirals as a filter, drawing in these denser energies which are no longer needed, moving them through the spirals, & releasing them as fresh, positive, loving life force energies. ►The earrings in the photos are ready to ship. ►►You will receive another pair of earrings & not these in the photo for hygiene reasons ● I ship every order by registered mail with a tracking number via Hellenic-post. ● Your purchase will arrive gift wrapped. ● Please see Shipping & Policies tab for specific shipping information ● Ships in 1-2 business days ✱ CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Please follow these steps to ensure your beautiful jewelry lasts a lifetime. ✔ Wearing Silver jewelry will naturally tarnish over time. Always protect your jewelry from knocks, scratches, chemicals, sunlight, & heat/cold to minimize these effects. ● I recommend removing jewelry when you shower or bathe & particularly when on the beach, in the sea, & in chlorinated water. ● Avoid spraying perfume or applying creams directly onto your jewelry. ● Keep away from extreme temperatures, humidity, & sunlight, & avoid wearing your jewelry when using bleach. Storing ● To protect your jewelry, pieces should be individually placed in a pouch or within a soft lined box to stop them from being scratched or tangled. Ideally, store your jewelry in a dark, cool, & dry place, & try to keep pieces apart, so that they don’t rub together or tangle up. ✔ Cleaning ● Metal: Using a soft, lint-free cloth is an effective way to keep silver jewelry looking bright & clean. A silver cleaner can also be used to clean sterling silver pieces. Ideally, store silver pieces in an airtight bag to help reduce tarnishing. ✱ ✱ If you are looking for a ring with the same theme, please check: www.etsy.com/applenamedD/listing/501013810 ✱ FOR MORE SHORT - POST EARRINGS: https://www.etsy.com/shop/applenamedD?section_id=12218123&ref=shopsection_leftnav_3 ✱ YOU LIKE LONG EARRINGS?
