December — handmade Korean jewellery, nickel-free plating

Part of the jinjja.shop maker guides — one page for each independent Korean brand on the marketplace. Last updated 27 September 2026.

What is December?

December is an independent Korean jewellery brand that makes everyday earrings, necklaces and bracelets by hand in South Korea. Its pieces are sold on jinjja.shop, an Australian marketplace for independent, owner-run Korean makers.

The range spans pavé cubic huggies, mini hoops, stud earrings, layered necklaces, pearl necklaces and bangles. Pieces are finished in gold or silver, and the brand describes its plating as nickel-free throughout the range.

How is December jewellery made?

December uses brass as the base metal on most pieces, with cubic zirconia, acrylic pearl, real pearl, natural stone, mother-of-pearl, Formica, wood or shell added depending on the design. Earring posts are either 925 silver or titanium. The brand describes 925 silver posts as 92.5% silver and notes they can bend gently; the other option is titanium posts. Posts that bend slightly in transit can be straightened gently by hand.

December’s plating process layers a base plate with a second bonded coating to build colour. The brand states this makes the finish water-safe, hard, scratch-resistant and more durable than standard plating. The coating is described as nickel-free — this is the brand’s own material statement. All pieces carry an anti-tarnish thick plating, though the brand notes that any accessory can naturally tarnish over time from contact with air, sweat, cosmetics and perfume, and recommends wiping pieces gently with a soft cloth and storing them in a zip bag or soft pouch.

What are December earring posts made of?

December describes its plating as nickel-free, and its earring posts as either 925 silver or titanium. These are December’s own material descriptions, not a medical promise. If you have a specific metal sensitivity or allergy, check the individual listing for the post material used on that piece before purchasing.
