Xiaolongbao Soup Dumpling Hoops

Earrings as tasty as your cravings. These mid-sized soup dumpling-inspired hoop earrings have hand-folded, rounded pleats that twirl upwards, just like the dumpling skin of the Shanghainese and Taiwanese delicacies xiaolongbao. Available in ultra-shiny recycled brass or sterling silver 14k gold-filled or sterling silver earring posts and backings Measures 3/4" long and wide Hollowed back for extremely lightweight wear Instructions for wearing: Because of how I designed these earrings, there is an ideal left earring and right earring so that the carved/detailed sides show more from the front. Put these earrings on with the carved/detailed sides facing inward, toward your face (not outward, away from your face). When they're on, they will sit at a 45-degree angle and you can see the carved/detailed sides (vs. the smooth back sides) more from the front. See model photos for examples. Handcrafted in New York with love, the Xiaolongbao Soup Dumpling Hoops were originally hand-folded and carved in wax, then cast in recycled metal and polished by hand. Each piece is handmade to order and will take an average 7-14 business days to arrive to you. This piece is part of our Water Banquet mini-collection—striking and high-art representations of culinary delicacies, including bubble tea, tofu skin and bok choy.
