Abstract
This disclosure enables various piercing techniques, earrings therefor, and methods of manufacture and use thereof. In particular, these technologies can preclude a bystander from readily comprehending how an earring is attached to an ear of a wearer when the bystander views the ear of the wearer frontally straight-on. This preclusion occurs by providing a floating effect for the earring based on where the ear is pierced and how the earring is structured.
Claims16
A method comprising:
- forming a hole in a helix of an ear or a superior concha of the ear, wherein the hole is respectively anatomically covered by a superior helix of the ear or an inferior antihelix crus of the ear such that the hole is respectively anatomically hidden by the superior helix or the inferior antihelix crus when the ear is viewed frontally straight-on;
- and
- inserting a post of an earring into the hole such that the earring is coupled to the ear via the post and the post is respectively anatomically hidden by the superior helix or the inferior antihelix crus when the ear is viewed frontally straight-on.
