ear cuffs

Cartilage-hugging ear accessories

Ear cuffs are jewelry pieces that wrap around the outer edge of the ear, typically the cartilage, without requiring a piercing.

They clip or clamp onto the ear and can range from simple bands to elaborate designs with chains or dangling elements: She wore a delicate gold ear cuff on her upper ear.

Unlike traditional earrings, they offer a pierced look without commitment.
