Size & fit
How big these actually are, what each weight feels like after four hours, and which back is which.
The shapes, to scale
Each silhouette below is drawn at the same scale as the others, against the real length range of the pieces we sell in that shape. The number is the drop measured from where it meets your ear.
Judging size from a photograph
The trick that actually works: find the length in centimetres on the product page, then hold your thumb and forefinger that far apart and put them next to your ear in a mirror. A photograph has no scale — your own hand does. Four centimetres looks small written down and is a substantial jhumka on the ear.
The other half of it: every product page lists the weight of the pair. That matters more than the length for whether you will still be wearing them at eleven at night.
What the weights feel like
| Light under 6 g the pair | You stop noticing them within ten minutes. Studs, huggies and the fine danglers. |
|---|---|
| Medium 6–12 g the pair | Present but easy. Most jhumkas and danglers sit here — this is the band we design for. |
| Statement over 12 g the pair | You will know you are wearing them by the evening. Double chandbalis and temple jhumkas. Worth it for a wedding, not for a Tuesday. |
Anything under 12 g carries a Light on the ear chip on its card and its product page. That is computed from the weight in the data, never written by hand, so it cannot be wrong.
The four backs
Still not sure?
Message us on WhatsApp before you order with the piece you are looking at and a photo of what you are wearing it with. That is a two-minute answer for us and it is the whole reason we put a phone number on the site — and because exchange is limited to 24 hours after delivery, asking first is genuinely the better route.
