Ari Chain Drop Single Ear Cuff

Edge without effort. Movement without a piercing.

The Ari does two things at once. It adds movement, and it gives the ear the layered look of a stack, all without a single piercing.

A slim cuff in rhodium-plated 925 sterling silver wraps the ear in two parallel bands, like two stacked rings. At the tip of the upper band sits a bezel-set 5A cubic zirconia, a clean point of sparkle held in a smooth rim of silver. Below the cuff, a fine chain drapes in a soft loop from the back of the cuff to the end of the lower band. It swings gently as you move, catching light along its links.

The effect is architectural and quietly modern. Two lines, one stone and a chain that moves make a small composition in a single piece. Wear it alone on a bare ear for an instant, finished look. Or add it to an ear you've already built, as the moving outer frame around your lobe pieces.

How to wear the Ari

1. Hold the cuff with the chain loop hanging below.
2. Slide the gap of the cuff onto the thinnest part of your outer cartilage rim.
3. Move it to where you'd like it to sit, often the middle of the outer rim.
4. Squeeze gently until it holds without pinching.
5. Let the chain drape naturally below the cuff.

Edge without effort. Movement without a piercing.

FAQ

Do I need a piercing to wear the Ari?
No. The Ari slides onto the outer cartilage rim of your ear, with no piercing at all.

How do I put on the Ari ear cuff?
Hold the cuff with the chain hanging below it. Slide the open gap onto the thinnest part of your outer rim, then move it to where you'd like it to sit. Squeeze gently until it holds without pinching, and let the chain drape.

Will the Ari stay on my ear?
Once it's adjusted, the cuff grips the cartilage with gentle tension and stays put during normal movement. Because nothing passes through the ear, it can slip off if the chain catches on clothing or hair, or while you sleep. Take it off before changing clothes, exercising or going to bed.

Can I adjust the fit?
Yes, slightly. Open or close the cuff in small, gentle steps until it fits your ear. Adjust it once and then leave it, because bending sterling silver back and forth repeatedly weakens it.

Where is the stone on the Ari?
The 5A cubic zirconia is bezel-set at the tip of the cuff's upper band. It sits at the front of your ear, with the chain looping below.

Does the chain move?
Yes. The chain is fixed at the back of the cuff and at the end of the lower band, and it hangs loosely between those points. It swings gently as you move.

How is the Ari different from the Celine Pavé Ear Cuff?
Both are no-piercing cuffs. The Celine is a single pavé band that sits still on the rim, and its focus is sparkle. The Ari has two slim bands, one bezel-set stone and a moving chain loop, so it brings layering and movement. Choose the Celine for refined sparkle, and the Ari for a modern statement.

Can I wear the Ari with pierced earrings?
Yes. The Ari sits on the outer rim, so every lobe and inner-ear piercing stays free. Try the Vivienne Double Line Single Huggie at the lobe, with small studs above it and the Ari framing the outer ear. For more cuff sparkle, add the Freya Everyday Pavé Single Ear Cuff at another point on the rim.

Is the Ari comfortable?
The cuff rests on the cartilage with light pressure. If it pinches, open it very slightly. Cartilage can feel tender under constant pressure, so give your ear a break after a few hours if you need to.

Is the stone a diamond?
No. It's a 5A-grade cubic zirconia, a high-grade lab-created stone.

Will the Ari tarnish?
Sterling silver can darken over time, and rhodium plating wears gradually with regular use. Fine chains often darken first. Keep it away from perfume, lotion and chlorine, wipe it gently after wearing, and store it flat in its pouch so the chain doesn't tangle.

Is the Ari suitable for sensitive skin?
Rhodium plating over 925 sterling silver is well tolerated by most skin types, because the plating sits between the silver alloy and your skin. If your skin reacts easily to metals, the titanium pieces in MNML's Elements collection are the most reliable choice.

Is the Ari sold as a pair?
No. It's sold as a single cuff for one ear.
