Arista Single Earring

THE STORY
I've always thought there was something quietly confident about a single earring, the kind of detail that makes you look twice without trying. That idea sat with me for a while before I finally designed one. Arista is the first single earring I made, an ear cuff that wraps along the upper ear, with draped chains falling down the side. I made it a little bigger than I originally planned, mostly because with my curly hair, I wanted something that could hold its own and still be seen. I also designed it in both silver and gold, so it's never tied to one color, it simply fits everything.

THE CRAFTSMANSHIP
I crafted Arista using gold-plated copper and silver-plated copper for the ear cuff, finished with a textured surface along the band. From the lower edge, multiple chains in mixed gold and silver tones fall in varying lengths, creating a fringe effect along the side of the ear. The cuff wraps around the upper ear with no closure, designed to sit securely and comfortably in place, making it as practical as it is striking.

THE STYLING ADVICE
Arista is made to be worn alone, on one ear, for that understated but striking look. Pull your hair back or to one side to let the draped chains show fully, especially if you have curly or textured hair like I do. Available in both silver and gold, it pairs effortlessly with any jewelry combination, and works for both everyday wear and evening looks that need a small but noticeable detail.
