Leverback earrings have a hook that fits through a pierced ear and meets a clasp at the back of the earlobe, providing security. They can be combined with dangle earrings and frame small jewelry items, but cannot be studs. Toggle clasps are commonly used with leverback earrings and allow for variation in design.
Leverback earrings are a type of earring with a hook that fits through a pierced ear and meets a clasp at the back of the earlobe. The clasp connects to the hook, partially covering the part of the hook that extends through the pierced hole in the ear and out behind the earlobe. Some people wear leverback earrings because they like the look of leverback earrings. Others wear them because they are a kind of hook earring that is securely secured in the ear. Most other types of hook earrings can slip out of the ear if not secured with a special post, which is rare.
The type of hook used to make lever-back earrings can be combined with dangle earrings of various lengths. They can also frame small jewelry items such as glass beads, pearls, semi-precious stones, and precious stones. Leverback earrings, however, cannot be earrings. This is because the earrings need to be placed on the posts and they need to fit just over the pierced hole. With these earrings, the jewelry sits below this hole or even dangles below the earlobe.
Although there are a number of ways that toggle clasps can be used in jewelry design, there is one silhouette that is typically connected with this clasp. This silhouette features a toggle clasp from which a piece of jewelry or decoration dangles just below the earlobes. These jewels or ornaments can be pearls, glass beads, faceted semi-precious stones and faceted precious stones. There are many jewelry companies that sell earrings that follow this classic silhouette. As with all types of earrings, the cost of leverback earrings varies depending on the quality of the metals and stones used to make the earrings.
There are a few variations that have to do with the clasps that define the lever back earrings. In some cases, embellishments can be attached to the front of the toggle clasp. In other cases, the closure itself is simple and contains a small loop at the bottom. This loop is positioned to fit just below the earlobe. From this loop, chains, beads and hang.
Stones that fit within settings can also be hung from this loop. This type of toggle clasp is the most common type found in stores that sell jewelry-making supplies. This is because this type of toggle clasp allows for the greatest variation in design.
