Question 6

What are earring backs? Do I get to choose them?

Accepted Answer

Earring backs are small components that are used to keep earrings safe on the earlobe. They are also called earring closures and earring clasps, and they keep earrings from slipping off and getting lost. Earring backs come in wide varieties, have different designs, and have different methods of securing the earring. While you shop for our lab diamond earrings, you can choose between push backs or screw backs. Additionally, you can also reach out to our team in order to further customise the backs as per your preferences.

Question 7

Which earring backs are most secure?

Accepted Answer

While all earring backs are secure enough, it is widely considered that screw backs are more dependable and preferred compared to others. A screw back’s closure has a threaded post and a back that one can twist to tightly secure against the earlobe. A high level of security hence provided ensures that the earring stays in place. Therefore, they are ideal for valuable lab diamond earrings.
