Hand-stamping is a three step process:
1. Each letter is hammered into the brass individually. In some cases, each earring piece has received 3-4 letter hammering's.
2. The phrase or word is then hand-dyed with black ink.
3. The pieces are then polished free of the ink that has bled from the phrase.
All hand stamped work will look similar to this, but due to the nature of stamping, will be unique to your pair.
All Grey Theory Mill earrings are made with Hypoallergenic, Surgical Grade A, Titanium Earring Wire. Titanium has no traces of nickel and is the premier metal for sensitive ears, which is why this metal is used for surgical instruments.
Earrings are NOT waterproof. Please remove earrings before swimming & bathing as water temperature and chlorine could compromise the bond between earring piece and post.
Raw brass will naturally patina in color over time. If you prefer a bright gold-brass color you can rub them with a jewelry polishing cloth or brighten with lemon juice. A sample of jewelry polishing cloth is included with all brass earring purchases.

Grey Theory Mill is the San Diego jewelry brand of Jonnie Estes (pronounced "john-ny"), best known for tiny stamped statement earrings that, in the brand's words, spark laughter and eye rolls from coast to coast. Its motto: hand-crafted jewelry with a touch of sass, a pinch of the profane, yet always classy.
Jonnie opened her Etsy shop on April 3, 2010, during an art-department special projects class at Palomar College, under the made-up name Windeymoor. In early 2012 she renamed it, wanting a name with "grey" in it, and has said that starting the business became her own classroom for art, design and marketing. The shop began with hand-painted shirts, sewn notebooks and chalkboard signs before settling into jewelry.
The line aims for simple, edgy, hypoallergenic pieces made with ethically sourced materials at accessible prices, and every pair of earrings uses nickel-free titanium posts or hooks. ModernTribe has carried the Yiddish side of the humor: "Oy Vey" brass earrings and a "Verklempt" bar necklace.
