ACCESSORIES | Ear Cuff

Apparently this is an ear cuff. This golden one I found at the 'used' section of the local jewelry shop. The first thoughts about the function(relatively, as if decorating your ear merely had a practical function) of this odd little clip were perhaps for holding a skarf together or a tiny ring for the top of your pinky or toe. And even though ear bangles are a novelty for me, they evidently have been around for some decades.
