| Rivet Handmade Jewelry Rivet uses sterling silver, 14k gold - yellow and white, and copper, unless otherwise specified. All stones used are semi-precious. Typical stones available: amethyst, aquamarine, blue sapphire, blue topaz, citrine, emerald, garnet, moonstone, opal, peridot, tourmaline, and some fresh water pearls. All pieces are made one by one, by hand, by one artist and craftswoman, Leigh Salmon. Due to the handmade nature of her jewelry, there will be slight variations in each piece. Leigh has a sharp eye for detail and a finesse for creating inventive, fresh and bold designs that can be simple enough to wear every day. Sometimes she will incorporate a hidden surprise, such as a stamped message, a hidden stone or a moveable part in her designs. Rivet also has a wide selection of gauged earrings and some plugs. Gauged earrings and plugs are for people with stretched earlobes or people stretching their earlobes. The smaller the gauge number, the thicker the wire (the larger the hole in the earlobe). It seems backwards, I know, but that is how the gauge scale works. Most people without stretched earlobes can wear the 18g styles, and some can even wear the 16g, if they've had their ears pierced a long time, or have worn heavy earrings in the past and their piercing may be slightly stretched.
