Why have you used metal for your earring holders instead of wood?Updated 2 months ago
After 4 years of working with wood to design our earring holders, Clare (Bon Maxie's founder) kept feeling like there were some improvements to be made.
Looking into various other materials, Clare discovered that all the improvements she wanted to make could only be done using a material other than wood!
Using our custom-made metal for our earring holders has allowed us to negate a lot of productions issues, making quality consistent and products last even longer!
- Our metal is super fine (but not sharp, don't worry!) which makes organising your hoops, studs and hook earrings SO easy
- Our metal allows us to make our easy-drop slots for our adjustable earring holders sit VERY close together to allow you to condense your earrings and create more space to store more! Experiments with wood always snapped:)
- Our easy-drop slots are able to be cut even deeper than what we could achieve without breaking wood, so your earrings in our Easy-Drop earring holders are the safest they can be in this style design!
- Unlike wood, our metal is rust treated and designed to last a lifetime - we still advise to avoid storing in the bathroom as your earrings are not rust treated and it's still better for the longevity of the stand to be away from moisture
- They are sturdier in the post = they get to you in tact and they're easy for you to send as they come flatpacked
- We can design sturdy add-on items to help you organise other accessories like necklaces, watches, glasses and ring collections
- We are able to produce a larger quantity, more quickly! We have sold out time and time again on our earring holders but each holder takes a while to produce as every hole is cut by a laser. With our metal designs, we have special machinery that makes our designs in a flash, meaning we can produce more stock, quicker and ensure that we always have what you want in stock!
- Metal just looks super slick with EVERY decor style - boho, industrial, Scandi, minimalist, post-modern and cottagey!
