About PARUNELI

PARUNELI sells earrings one at a time. Not in pairs, not in sets you have to keep together: one stud, one hoop, one drop, one cuff. You choose by the piercing you want to fill, and you are free to wear something completely different on the other ear.

Why single earrings

Most people with more than one piercing already wear their earrings unmatched. A small stud higher up, a hoop in the first hole, a cuff on one side only. Yet earrings are still mostly sold in pairs, so half of every pair ends up in a drawer. We think the choice should start with the hole, not the pair.

So every price on this site is for one single earring, unless it says Odd Box. If you want a matching pair, add the same single twice. If you want a different one for the other ear, that is what we are here for.

Chosen by piercing, not by style

The shop is organised around five places on the ear: the lobe, the upper lobe, the conch, the helix and the tragus. Each piece lists the positions it suits, its post thickness and length, the inner diameter of hoops and its weight, so you can tell before you buy whether it will sit well in your piercing.

Helix and tragus pieces are for fully healed piercings only. Our cuffs need no piercing at all.

What our earrings are made of

• Posts and bases in 316L stainless steel or 925 sterling silver, as listed on each product.
• 18K gold plating on the gold pieces. Plating is a thin layer and wears gradually with use.
• Cubic zirconia: a lab-made stone, not a diamond.
• Freshwater cultured pearls: every pearl is slightly different in shape and lustre.

Our earrings are made for us by a contract manufacturer to our designs. More on materials and how to look after them on our care page.

Sealed one by one

Each pierced earring is packed in its own sealed pouch. That keeps every single clean until it reaches you, and it is why a pierced earring cannot be returned once its seal is opened, unless it is faulty. Unopened singles and all cuffs can be returned within 14 days. Details are on our returns page.
