Developed by James Hetfield and first appearing on the rear of the 1996 "Load" album sleeve, this has since become the classic icon of the band. The design is a clever symbol made by combining four letter "M"s off Metallica's original 1983 logo. A pair of 3D sculpted ear studs based on the Metallica Ninja Star icon; English pewter earrings. Pair of stud earrings, packaged in an Alchemy branded bag, including Alchemy guarantee and care instructions. Designed and hand made in England in fine antiqued English pewter. (Lead, cadmium & nickel compliant)
