Questions About Christian Defrance and Geneviève Dangles Chairs
  • What is a dangle earring?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    A dangle earring is an earring that hangs below the earlobe. The length, style or material of an dangle earring can vary.
  • What do dangle earrings symbolize?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2023
    What dangle earrings symbolize is a matter of interpretation. Some people believe that dangle earrings are symbols of femininity due to the way they swing and sway, but others don't assign any special meaning to them. Earrings in specific shapes have meaning as well. For example, cross earrings may represent a person's religious faith, while four-leaf clovers may be associated with good luck. On 1stDibs, explore a large selection of dangle earrings.
  • Are dangling earrings professional?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023
    Yes, dangling earrings can be professional. Some people feel that earrings in the workplace should hang no more than 0.5 to 0.75 inches below the ear to prevent distractions, so longer earrings may not be suitable for pairing with workwear. Consider the standards for attire at your place of business when selecting your earrings, as dress codes vary from organization to organization. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of dangle earrings.
  • What are dangling earrings called?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2023
    Dangling earrings are typically just called dangle earrings. Some people may also refer to their backings when saying the names of dangle earrings. For example, fish hook dangle earrings hang from curved wires, while lever-back dangle earrings have a hinged closure that latches shut for added security. Explore a large collection of dangle earrings on 1stDibs.
  • Are drop and dangle earrings the same?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2023
    No, drop and dangle earrings are not the same. Although both types of earrings hang below the ear, their designs are different. Dangle earrings swing when you move, while drop earrings remain stationary. On 1stDibs, find a diverse assortment of dangle and drop earrings from some of the world's top dealers.
  • Are dangling earrings good?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023
    Yes, dangling earrings can be good options. An understated pair of dangle earrings can be suitable for work or worn to dress up a casual outfit like jeans and a sweater. Larger dangle earrings can make a dramatic statement for a special occasion or an evening out. It's a good idea to remove dangle earrings before active activities like sports and workouts because they could get caught on something. Shop a wide range of dangle earrings on 1stDibs.
  • Why are dangling earrings attractive?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023
    Dangling earrings are attractive for a variety of reasons. Also called dangle earrings, they draw the eye downward and can help to visually lengthen the face and neck. Many people also find the swinging movement of dangle earrings to be playful or alluring. Dangle earrings come in many sizes, styles and materials, giving you many options to consider. On 1stDibs, shop a large selection of dangle earrings.
  • Why do people wear dangling earrings?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertDecember 12, 2023
    While motivations differ, people generally wear dangling earrings because they like how they look. Since they hang below the ear and swing when you move, dangle earrings catch attention and draw the eye. Long earrings can also visually lengthen the face, and the longest ones can accentuate the collarbones and shoulders. Explore a large collection of dangle earrings on 1stDibs.
  • Are dangle earrings appropriate for work?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2023
    Whether dangle earrings are appropriate for work depends on the setting, which can include standards for safety as well as dress codes. Work around machinery or moving parts can be hazardous with dangle earrings or other loose accessories. In some workplaces, stud earrings may be the norm, while in others, understated dangle earrings like those set with small pearls or diamonds may be appropriate. There are also workplaces where large statement earrings that dangle may be acceptable attire. On 1stDibs, explore a collection of dangle earrings.
  • What are dangle stud earrings called?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023
    Dangle stud earrings are generally just called dangle earrings. However, dangle stud is actually a misnomer, as the term "stud" refers to an earring that doesn't dangle or hang below the ear. When people say "dangle stud," they usually mean a dangle earring that hangs from a post -- a metal rod that fits through the ear and is fastened by a push-on backing. On 1stDibs, shop a wide range of stud and dangle earrings.
  • Can guys wear dangling earrings?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertNovember 8, 2023
    Yes, guys can wear dangling earrings. Men can feel free to wear whatever type of earrings appeal to them. Dangle earrings with charms depicting crosses, feathers and infinity symbols are common picks for men, as are dangle earrings with gemstones like diamonds, rubies or emeralds. Shop a variety of earrings for men on 1stDibs.
  • What do you call non dangling earrings?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2023
    Non-dangling earrings are usually called studs. However, some people refer to them as post earrings. Because they're free of hanging elements, stud earrings are a great option for everyday wear. Find a wide range of antique, vintage and contemporary stud earrings from some of the world's top dealers on 1stDibs.
  • What is the difference between a drop earring and a dangle earring?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023
    The difference between a drop earring and a dangle earring is how it hangs. A drop earring extends down below the earlobe but is stationary, while a pair of dangle earrings’ design allows it to swing. On 1stDibs, find a selection of earrings.
