Collection: Men's Earrings

925 sterling silver earrings for men — bali hoops, studs and single styles, in plain polished and oxidised finishes. Every piece is hallmarked sterling silver, nickel-free and hypoallergenic, and arrives gift-boxed with an authenticity card.

Choosing a bali size

Bali diameter is the decision that matters most, and it is measured across the hoop:

• 11 mm — sits close to the lobe, discreet enough for any workplace. The right first bali.
• 14 mm — the classic. Visible and balanced; the size most people picture.
• 16 mm — a deliberate statement, and it needs a bit of jaw to carry it.

A rough rule: the wider your face, the more diameter you can wear comfortably.

Single or pair?

Both are correct. A single bali in one ear is the traditional wear across much of India; a pair reads younger and more contemporary. We label every listing clearly as single or pair, because that is the most common source of confusion when buying men's earrings online.

Why 925 silver matters here

An earring sits inside a piercing, which is the one place where metal quality is a skin question rather than a style one. Nickel is the most common cause of piercing irritation and is present in most cheap fashion metal. All our silver is nickel-free 925 sterling — see our guide to hypoallergenic earrings for sensitive ears.

Frequently asked questions

Which ear should a man wear a single earring in? There is no rule that holds up — the old left/right symbolism is a Western myth from the 1980s. Wear it in whichever ear you prefer.

What size bali for a first piercing? 11 mm. Easier to live with, less likely to snag, and you can size up later.

Will silver earrings tarnish? They can dull with sweat. A soft cloth restores them — see why silver turns black.

Are these suitable for office wear? An 11 mm plain or oxidised hoop is discreet enough for almost any workplace that permits earrings.
