Estimate earring weight from materials to ensure comfortable wearability.
Number of beads on each earring
Select material or choose Custom to enter a density
Diameter of each bead in millimetres
Weight of hooks, pins, caps etc.
How We Calculate This
The calculator estimates bead weight using the sphere volume formula and material density:
bead weight = (4/3 x pi x radius\u00B3) x density
Findings weight (hooks, pins, etc.) is added separately. The total weight per earring determines the comfort rating.
