Earrings
This category includes hoops or dangling pieces of metal worn in the ear.
Earrings come in many shapes and sizes from large boat shaped to small spirals. Some earings have small hoops with attached dangling hoops, sprials, or decorative pieces of metal. These are distinguished from rings and hair coils because they are not solid all the way, and only one coil.
