20 Antique Bronze Stainless Steel Earring Studs – (10mmX4mm)

Description

Antique Bronze Earring Studs

Stainless steel forms the core of these posts, offering a hypoallergenic foundation free from nickel, cadmium, and lead—essential for sensitive ears that react to base metals. The antique bronze plating brings a warm, aged patina that mimics vintage brass without the oxidation issues. Each antique bronze earring stud measures 10mm in diameter at the flat circular pad, giving you a generous surface for securing polymer clay shapes, wood veneer cutouts, or hand-painted ceramic discs. The 0.9mm pin diameter slides through standard earlobe piercings without resistance, while the 4mm height provides enough clearance for butterfly backs to sit flush against the lobe.

• Pack contains 20 individual earring posts (enough for 10 pairs)
• Flat pad diameter: 10mm; total post height: 4mm; pin thickness: 0.9mm
• Stainless steel core with antique bronze finish—nickel, cadmium, and lead free
• Wide gluing surface accommodates cabochons from 8mm to 12mm diameter
• Warm bronze tone coordinates with copper wire, amber beads, and earth-toned palettes

These stainless steel earring posts excel when you’re embedding small dried flowers in resin—the 10mm diameter supports a dome without overhang, and the bronze finish complements botanical tones beautifully. Glue flat-backed rhinestones in cluster formations across the pad for Art Deco-inspired studs, or adhere laser-cut leather circles for lightweight geometric designs. The antique finish also disguises adhesive shadows better than bright silver, useful when working with translucent materials like UV resin or polymer clay with mica powders. Pair these with antique bronze spacer beads in matching necklace designs to create cohesive jewellery sets.

Use E6000 or two-part epoxy for permanent bonds with heavier cabochons; cyanoacrylate gel works well for lightweight polymer clay. The bronze plating holds up through regular wear but avoid prolonged water exposure to maintain the aged patina. At this diameter, the posts sit visibly on the earlobe—they’re statement pieces rather than delicate accents, so design accordingly with bold colours or textured surfaces that command attention up close.
