Kidney-Shaped Pierced Earrings

I wore these a few times to raise awareness of my need for a transplant. Just got a kidney from my sister and it's settling in nicely. Would love to gift these to someone who could get some use out of them. They come with a matching "lapel" pin. Purchased from Etsy.

Congratulations! Best wishes for a speedy recovery and great health.

For the earrings could you share the information of the shop that made the earrings? I would not gift the earrings that have heen worn before as there is still a risk of infection even if they were cleaned carefully.

Its a good idea to clean any jewlery you purchase...whether it is New or Used..A good soak in Disenfectant gives them both the same level of safety.

Buying them from Etsy doesnt make it "cleaner"
