Streak Plate Earrings in Acrylic
The streak plate method is used in microbiology to isolate a pure strain of microorganism from a mixture. A sample is 'streaked' across an agar plate and isolated colonies of a microorganism can then grow, and be extracted for further study or use.
The streaking effect is achieved by laser engraving and paint-filling on a disc of frosted acrylic. The acrylic discs measure 3.5cm in diameter and hang from black earring toppers.
The earring posts are surgical steel and are paired with comfort clutch earring nuts.

Customer Reviews
I bought them 10 days before a science event at my university. They arrived in time which was great because I was ordering from New Zealand. Beyond thrilled with the speed. They are very comfortable, even though I'm used to wearing hook earrings. The acrylic kinda squeaks when you move? But its not annoying so its a non-issue. A very reasonable price for a great product, I'll branch out into more expensive products now that I know how high quality these earrings are :)
I bought the agar plate earring for my scientist wife, she absolutely loved them! They are great quality too.
Fantastic Earrings for a science teacher or any lover of science! Best quality acrylic earrings I’ve found. Every design I’ve ordered have been fantastic!!!
Cannot recommend Oh Pluto enough!
I’ve left this review on all of the designs I own…. Which is quite a few and some that are not even stocked any more! Which is really saying something about how amazing they are!
