Clip-On Earrings
Clip-on earrings for people who do not have, or do not want, pierced ears. This collection mixes two mechanisms: classic clip backs for hoops and drops, and magnetic clips for studs. Both hold through a normal day and come off without tools.
About Clip-On Earrings
How a clip-on holds
A clip-on grips the lobe between a front pad and a hinged back. Spring-hinge and padded clips spread the pressure and are the comfortable choice for hours of wear; screw-backs let you set the tension yourself. For studs we use magnetic clips instead, which leave no pressure point at all.
