Although ear cuffs can look like a pierced earring, they are actually made with a gap that gets pinched onto the ear to hold the cuff in place. Ear cuffs do not require ear piercing and they can clip on to various parts of the ear.
Diamond Wave Ear Climber in 14k White Gold
This single ear climber was built from the client’s own original design concept — a flowing, organic line that curves up along the outer ear, traced with pave-set diamonds and anchored by a trio of round diamonds near the base. Cast in 14k white gold with naturally mined VS clarity, F-G color diamonds throughout, the piece was engineered from scratch since no existing reference for the design could be found. The wavy silhouette is deliberately asymmetrical and organic rather than geometric, designed to sit toward the thinner outer edge of the ear. It is a climber-style earring, meaning it is intended to travel upward along the ear’s curve rather than hang or sit flat, and it was designed around multiple ear piercings to allow for flexible post placement. The piece suits someone who wants a single standout earring with real sculptural presence rather than a traditional matched pair.
