Xenos Jewelry Sword Earrings Through Ear Review 2026: I Wore These Daily for a Month

I've always liked jewelry with a bit of an edge to it, so when I spotted Xenos Jewelry's Sword Earrings Through Ear, the design that makes it look like a tiny blade is piercing straight through your ear, I had to try a pair for myself.

What They're Made Of

These earrings come in two styles: Style A has engraved knotwork running down the hilt and blade with a single dark stone at the crossguard, while Style B has a smoother, twisted spiral hilt with three dark faceted stones. Both are made from 316L stainless steel, which is anti-allergic, waterproof, and rust-resistant, so I didn't have to worry about taking them off to shower. Style A measures about 50mm tall and Style B about 54mm, and a pair weighs only around 6 grams, so they're much lighter than they look in photos.

Wearing Them Day to Day

I went with Style A for the engraved detail. The front-to-back design really does create that "blade through the lobe" illusion from every angle, and I got more compliments (and a few double-takes) on these than on any other earrings I own. Since they're stainless steel, they held up fine through a month of daily wear, no fading, no skin irritation, no dulling of the finish.

Pricing

Style A runs $19.99 (down from $35.99, about 44% off) and Style B is $24.99 (down from $39.99). Both are unisex, so the sizing and styling work whether you're buying for yourself or as a gift.

Pros and Cons

What I liked

• Genuinely eye-catching design that reads as "blade through the ear" from any angle
• 316L stainless steel construction — waterproof and didn't irritate my skin
• Very lightweight at around 6g per pair despite the bold look
• Currently 44% off the Style A pricing

What could be better

• The elongated design is more attention-grabbing than a lot of people want for daily wear at the office
• Only two style/stone options if you want the dark faceted crystal look

Final Verdict

If you want a pair of earrings that actually gets noticed, these deliver on the design in real life, not just in product photos. At $19.99 for Style A, I think they're a solid pickup if the gothic/dark-luxury look fits your style. You can grab the Sword Earrings Through Ear here while the discount is live.
