Some earring designs demand a hook that disappears into the piece - and some demand one that becomes part of it. These matte black niobium hooks with a warm copper accent bead do both.

~~ ITEM DETAILS:
• Material: Pure niobium - not plated, painted, or coated
• Finish: Anodized matte black with copper-plated brass accent bead
• Size: 8mm x 20mm
• Gauge: 20 gauge
• Quantity: 4 ear wires (2 pairs)
• Origin: Made in the USA
• Special Features: Open loop, works with standard chain-nose pliers

~~ WHY YOU'LL LOVE THESE:
The rich matte black finish is achieved through anodization - an electrochemical process, not paint or dye - so it will never chip, flake, or fade in your customer's ear. The warm copper bead adds an intentional, finished look right out of the package. The open loop at the bottom is easy to work with chain-nose pliers without marring the finish. If you've been hunting for a hook that actually holds up in dark and earth-tone designs, this is it - the jewelry maker who told you niobium changed their business was talking about exactly this kind of finding.

~~ PERFECT FOR:
✓ Matte black and copper color schemes
✓ Dark boho and moody gemstone earring designs
✓ Earth tone and warm metallic collections
✓ Sensitive ear and allergy-friendly jewelry lines
✓ Professional jewelry businesses selling finished pieces
✓ Labradorite, obsidian, amber, and natural stone pairings
✓ Copper wire-wrapped earring designs
✓ Anyone upgrading from plated hooks that flake or irritate

Bring photo-ready results to your dark and earth-tone designs with a hook your customers will never want to take out.
