Lever-Back Earring Info & Tips

Trendy & Secure

Lever-back earrings complement any hair length. They are trendy for casual wear or chic for formal occasions. They are secure and not likely to come off unexpectedly.

A Timeless Design

Lever-back earrings have a hook-shaped section that passes through the piercing in the ear. They have a small lever at the back that opens and clips over the curved wire. This timeless design dates back to ancient Greece.

How the Lever Works

Hold the earring in your hand to try it out first.  Open and close the lever.  Make sure the hollow lever section is in place over the curved part of the earring. 

Putting it On

Open the lever and slide the curved section into the pierced hole.  Straighten it.  Close the lever.  Feel the back section of the earring with your fingers to ensure that the hollowed lever section is sitting securely over the curved wire.

A Matched Set

It can make an outfit feel complete with a matched rosary bracelet and earring set.  We also sell them separately.
