About this Product
Carry the spirit of Puerto Rico with you in these Puerto Rico Flag studs. These earrings honor the island's legacy with two variations: Classic Flag and Black Flag.
The Black Flag represents the "pie de lucha" (foot of fight). The first Puerto Rican flag painted in black was the flag of Old San Juan. This flag was a opposition response to the Financial Oversight and Management Board (La Junta) symbolizing resistance to policies seen as oppressive or exploitative. It also symbolize a rejection of any ideology, philosophy or tradition that seeks to enslave humanity.
Qualities:
Lightweight; you will forget you have them on!
Hypoallergenic; made with metals like Stainless Steel and/or gold plated Brass.
Slow made; made in smaller batches (less than 10) to reduce waste.
Coloring may vary based on your viewing device.

Meet the Maker
Hello! My name is Nelly and I'm the owner and maker of Among Strings. I'm a stay at home mom of a teenage girl and a proud military spouse. I was born and raised in the tropical paradise of Puerto Rico. I've been doing Macrame since 2020 but wasn't until 2023 that I decided to open my shop so I could be able to take my work wherever the military send us while also doing something that I love. I specialized in nature designs but I'm always open to explore more ideas. I'm passionate about creating fun and beautiful pieces that will bring joy to your heart and a garden to your ears!

How it’s Made
All of my resin earrings are crafted with care and precision. I hand-pour high-quality resin, adding unique elements like pigments, alcohol inks or/and real dried flowers to create a one-of-a-kind design. Once cured and polish the pieces are assembled with hypoallergenic findings like gold plated Stainless Steel or brass for lasting comfort.

FAQs
What if the shipping address listed on my order is incorrect?
If you place an order with an incorrect shipping address, you can message me to correct it, only if the order has not already been shipped. If an order has already been shipped and does not arrive due to an incorrect or incomplete shipping address on the order, unfortunately I will not be able to offer a refund as it is the buyer's responsibility to provide a correct shipping address.
What if an order gets lost in the mail or does not arrive?
If the shipping address on the order is correct and it hasn't been delivered to the provided shipping address, message me to let me know. You should contact USPS and file a dispute which may take up to 7 business days. If the carrier confirms the package is lost I can either issue a partial refund or re-send a new one. However, if I re-confirm the shipping address with you and I have shipped you a replacement item and it still does not arrive, you will no longer be eligible for a refund.
I am not responsible for lost or stolen packages if your tracking number says delivered, I recommend checking with neighbors or building management to see if it was mistakenly taken in or filing a police report for stolen packages. I can assist by providing necessary order and shipping details.
