MY EARRINGS WONT CLOSE

Our jewelry is crafted from precious metals such as sterling silver and gold, which are softer materials. This means that over time, the clasps can become misaligned if they are pushed up or down slightly. Fortunately, fixing the clasps on various types of earrings is straightforward.

HUGGIE HOOPS

The huggie post has a groove at the end that fits into the back of the huggie. Carefully bend the post back into its original position. Be cautious not to apply too much force, as this can push the post too far or break the metal.

HINGED HOOPS

If the hinge is out of alignment, gently bend it back into position using your fingers or pliers. If the clasp feels loose, gently pinch the two "ears" of the hinge together using a tool like needle-nose pliers or even regular scissors. If the clasp is too tight, you can gently separate the two ears using needle-nose pliers. Carefully adjust the distance between the ears until the curved post fits snugly into the clasp.

BUTTERFLY BACKS

Butterfly backs for earring posts can loosen with regular use, so it’s important to check that they are secure. If you find that the backs feel loose, you can gently squeeze the two circular metal parts together with your fingers.
