Dylan Droplet Stud Earrings

A small drop of light, always in motion.

A polished silver ball sits neatly at the lobe. Below it, a mirror-polished teardrop hangs free and sways as you move. The ball stays still and the drop swings, and that small contrast is the whole design.

Light slides along the teardrop's smooth curve and catches in soft flashes whenever you turn your head. There are no stones and no texture. The movement and the polish do all the work.

At about 13mm long and 4mm wide, the Dylan is slim and fluid rather than dramatic. Wear the pair alone for clean, quiet movement. Or place it at the primary lobe and add small studs above, so the Dylan becomes the one moving piece in an otherwise still ear.

It's made in 925 sterling silver with rhodium plating and finished to a bright, cool shine.

Stillness above. Movement below.

FAQ

What's the difference between the Dylan and the Adele Droplet Studs?
The Adele is a solid domed teardrop that sits flat against the lobe as a stud. The Dylan is a small ball stud with a teardrop hanging below that moves as you do. Choose the Adele for stillness and the Dylan for movement.

Do the Dylan earrings move a lot?
The teardrop sways gently, not dramatically. At 13mm long, you get soft motion and flashes of light as you turn your head, without swinging or feeling heavy.

What is the teardrop made of?
The teardrop is 925 sterling silver with rhodium plating, polished to a mirror finish.

Can I wear the Dylan in an ear stack?
Yes. Wear it at the primary lobe as the moving piece, and add small studs or a huggie above it. Its slim shape keeps the stack clean.

Will the Dylan earrings tarnish?
Sterling silver can darken over time, and rhodium plating wears gradually with regular use, often faster in humid weather. Keep the earrings away from perfume, lotion and chlorine, wipe them after wearing, and store them dry in their pouch. A jeweller can re-plate them when the shine softens.

Will the mirror finish show scratches?
A mirror-polished surface shows fine scratches and fingerprints more easily than textured pieces. Wipe the drops with a soft, dry cloth after wearing, and store them apart from other jewellery.

Are the Dylan earrings suitable for sensitive ears?
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 ears react easily to metals, the titanium pieces in MNML's Elements collection are the most reliable choice.

What type of back does the Dylan use?
A butterfly back. Slide the post through your piercing, then push the butterfly onto the post until it sits snugly behind the lobe.

Can I shower or swim with the Dylan earrings?
No. Take them off before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping. Water, sweat and chlorine speed up tarnishing on silver and wear down the plating.

What packaging do the Dylan earrings come in?
The Dylan arrives in an MNML pouch.
