Happy Mother's Day!

This year in the United States Mother's Day is
Sunday, May 13, 2018



It's a celebration honoring mothers and motherhood, maternal bonds and the influence of mother's on society. It is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world, yet most commonly in March, April and May. In most countries, Mother's Day is a recent observance derived from the holiday as it has evolved in America.  When it was adopted by other countries and cultures, it was given different meanings, associated to different events (religious, historical or legendary), and celebrated on a different date or dates. Some countries already had existing celebrations honoring motherhood that could be traced back to ancient festivals like the Greek cult to Cybele, the Roman festival to Hilaria, or the Christian Mothering Sunday celebration.

Their celebrations have adopted
several external characteristics from the U.S. holiday, like giving carnations and other presents to your own mother.  The extent of the celebrations varies greatly. In some countries, it is potentially offensive to one's mother not to mark "her" day.  In others, it is a little-known festival celebrated mainly by immigrants, or covered by the media as a taste of foreign culture.



We think mother's are special and deserve a day of honor and appreciation. So, this year why not celebrate your mother by giving her beautiful earrings from any of our over a dozen catagories including Gemstones & Pearls, Tomorrow's Heirlooms, Nickel Free and more!

Nickel-Free Earrings for Sensitive Ears (Revised & Reposted)


NF93



Cliptomania.com knows there are many people with mildly to moderately "sensitive ears” due to an allergic reaction to nickel commonly found in earrings. "Nickel Free" clip-on earrings are a comfortable, affordable alternative to wearing regular earrings.  Many of the alloys used in jewelry contain nickel. What is nickel?  Nickel is a chemical element, pre-eminently an alloy metal, used in many other alloys, such as nickel brasses and bronzes, and alloys with copper, chromium, aluminum, lead, cobalt, silver, and gold.

All metals contain nickel, at least as impurities.  Fifteen percent of the population experiences an allergic reaction to nickel.  These sensitized people may show an allergy to nickel affecting their skin, known as dermatitis. Sensitivity to nickel may also appear in patients with pompholyx.  The reaction is not to the nickel itself, but the metallic salts created when the metal comes into contact with perspiration.  Nickel allergies affecting ears are often marked by itchy, red skin. Many earrings are now made nickel-free due to this problem allowing those who experience this sensitivity to comfortably wear jewelry again.
