Helen of Troy was the most beautiful woman in the ancient world, which launched a thousand ships to war. But Helen was a queen of Sparta before she was anything else, a woman whose presence commanded the attention of gods and kings alike.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can sold out designs be remade?
Some designs do return, while others remain part of Moon & Milk’s past collections. Because each piece is made in small batches, availability depends on timing, materials, and current workload.
When designs return, they are offered through Made to Order. For one-of-a-kind requests, custom work may be available on a limited basis. Please contact us here.
What does "Made to Order" mean?
Made to Order means your earrings are created specifically for you after your order is placed, rather than being mass produced in advance. This allows us to produce in small batches with care and intention. Please allow 3-4 weeks for production before shipping.
Where does my order ship from?
Moon & Milk ships from two locations: Los Angeles for Ready to Wear pieces, and Munich for Made to Order pieces.
Warranty
Moon & Milk beaded earrings are covered by a 3-year warranty on craftsmanship and beadwork. If an issue arises under normal wear, please contact us, and we’ll be happy to help. For more information on our 3-year warranty, visit here.
Jewelry Care
To preserve your Moon & Milk earrings, store them laying flat or hanging, preferably flat, in a dry and dark place. Original packaging is ideal for long-term storage. Keep away from heat, as the nylon thread used in construction may shrink and damage the beadwork.
Our pieces are created as heirlooms and are delicate by design. Please handle with care for longevity.
