THE ORIGINAL
ILLUSION EARRINGS™
Master the perfect earring stack—no extra piercings needed. The original Illusion Earrings by Aaria London are designed to create a bold, layered look effortlessly. Wear them solo or pair them together for a striking statement stack.
The Illusion Earrings, our signature best-sellers, have become icons in modern jewellery layering.
THE STORY
Born from necessity, not just design. During lockdown, our founder Ariana lost one of her favorite piercings when it healed over. Rather than lamenting the loss, she sketched what would become our signature Illusion Earrings—designs that create the layered look she loved with just one piercing.
"For 15 years as a model, I lived in basic black at castings. My small rebellion? Layered jewelry that expressed what my required uniform couldn't. It became my signature: a curated ear stack that felt like me in an industry that often didn't leave room for personality."
What began as a personal solution has evolved into our best-selling collection—each design thoughtfully crafted to give you that perfectly curated ear stack without the extra commitment.
Illusion Earrings
Just the Illusion Earring alone for a "did she get new piercings?" effect. Clean, simple, impactful.
THE MIXER
Add a simple stud in front for dimension and contrast. Perfect for day-to-night versatility.
THE MAXIMALIST
Combine with a small huggie hoop for the ultimate layered look without any additional commitment.

WHAT OUR COMMUNITY SAYS
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do Illusion Earrings work?
Our Illusion Earrings feature a single post that goes through your existing piercing. Behind your lobe, the design splits into multiple elements—each positioned to appear as though they're coming from separate piercings when viewed from the front or side.
Are they comfortable to wear?
Absolutely! The weight is distributed evenly (the entire piece weighs less than 2 grams) so you won't feel it pulling throughout the day. And unlike actual multiple piercings, you can remove it in seconds when needed.
Can I wear them with my existing earrings?
Yes! The Illusion Earring sits behind your lobe, creating that layered look while leaving your existing front-facing studs completely visible. Many customers combine them with simple studs for an even more dimensional look.
What are they made from?
Our Illusion Earrings are available in recycled sterling silver, 14k gold vermeil (2.5-micron thickness on recycled silver), and solid gold options. All are crafted in our RJC-certified workshop.
Do you sell them as singles or pairs?
We offer both! Some customers prefer a single statement piece, while others love the symmetry of a pair. The choice is yours.
Will they work with my ear shape?
Our designs are created to work with most ear shapes. The pieces are lightweight and balanced to sit comfortably regardless of your lobe size or shape.
