This is a dragon cartilage chain ear cuff earring- the red, silver and black colored chain dangles between a metal pierced post at the lobe and a silver-plated 6mm wide cuff higher on the ear.
(Is your cartilage pierced? I can stick a pierced post on the top instead of the cuff. See info below.)
The chain is made from enameled copper wire in two shades of red and one of black, as well as bright aluminum wire (the silver color). I twist and cut the wire for the earrings myself, so there are some places in the copper rings where the copper color shows through where it was cut. It isn't very noticeable, though, but this is just a heads up so you know.
At the bottom of the earring are a pewter dragon charm, a red glass bead, and a smaller round plastic black bead. The entire ear-piece is about 3 1/2" (8.9 cm) long from the cuff to the bottom of the dragon charm, and is 2" (5.1 cm) long from the cuff to the earring post.
Note: the mannequin's head and ear are smaller than a human's, so the cuff part looks kind of awkward. Sorry about that!
----------------------------------------------------
This listing is for a single ear piece that can be worn in either ear.
Do you have your cartilage pierced?
For no additional cost, I can switch out the slip-on cuff with another pierced post like most of the other earrings in my shop have. Here's an example:

Let me know in the "notes to seller" field when checking out, or contact me via Etsy if you want this option.

I can also switch the pierced posts with Sterling Silver (or 14k gold plated) ones, but that would cost extra- if you're interested in that, please contact me via Etsy and I'll let you know what the price would be.
I'm open to custom orders, so if you'd like something different, just let me know!
