Leather Pride Flag
This flag represents the BDSM and fetish community. Originally it was designed for the leather subculture community as Tony DeBlase designed it for the 1989 Chicago's International Mr Leather celebration that marked the 20th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots. Now it embraces all things BDSM and fetish. The symbol represents people involved with kink inclusive of those who are heterosexual and cisgender. The flag stripe colors are deliberately open to interpretation as DeBlase wanted to "leave it to the viewer to interpret the colors and symbols". This is very fitting for the BDSM and fetish community as it's a community open to different kinds of play, kink, ideas and consensual relationships.
Personally I love this flag as it represents a community that is not judgemental and open to all facets of sexuality and fantasy. It's also a community that values consent which makes it very sexy, plus it has a really cute flag.
The Pride Fritillary Drop Studs.
Designed to be cute and delicate in appearance, these adorable little studs are designed from the lower butterfly wings of the critically endangered fritillary butterfly. This design is truer to the actual butterfly's wing markings as the canvas allows for the super thin delicate black markings to overlay the gorgeous pride flag colours blended into the wings. I hope these cute little studs, give you wings to fly your colours with PRIDE.
Leather Pride Fritillary Earring Studs
These are designed to be durable, but as they are handmade, please treat them with love and care.
Clean them with water. For a deep clean, use warm soapy water and patt dry with a towel.
18k Gold plating should be kept clean of moisturizers, creams, chemicals and perfumes so use the enclosed cleaning cloth to keep it tarnish free.
If you bend or crease them, press them in your hands until they warm up! The multiple varnishes and sealants make them malleable when slightly warmed (do not iron or overheat)
Avoid scratching them agaisnt abrasive or sharp surfaces and store them away from sunlight. Store them next to one another, not ontop of eachother. See the Blog for more Details.
