Ear Cuffs and Ear Wraps?
Apparently earcuffs and earwraps have made a comeback! But since I thought that they
were an elaborate form of earmuffs, I figured I better find out for sure. For those of you like me wondering, here is a brief definition. In short, it is a long piece of jewelry that can be worn by women with either pierced or non-pierced ears and is the long earring that extends the length of the ear not just worn on the ear lobe. To make it easier, let me show you a picture from Harry Mason Designer Jewelry and you, too, will say “oh those”.
Earcuffs are quite versatile as they can be mixed and matched with other stud earrings to create your own custom look. In addition, although they are usually worn on only one ear for dramatic effect, some prefer to order two wraps to wear on both ears. But be careful when ordering, depending on the pattern you may require a left and right ear design. Take for example this gorgeous sterling silver dragon fly, the tail of the insect points inward making both left and right positions required for a matched set.
Another version of the ear cuff is a dangling model with one gem hanging from the cuff or even two or three animals dangling from a chain. Gold filled butterflies, sterling silver baby dolphins, hermatite stars, tanzanite crystals, crosses, leaves, and hearts all make pretty ear decorations. For those that prefer something less large, the intricately made, short cuffs with pearl or diamond accent, tiny graduated loops, and thin bands look just as lovely with an evening outfit or dressed down with casual wear.
