⚡ Technical Summary of your 18k Gold Lever-back Earring

Why choose our 18K Gold Lever-back Earrings for your creations?

The choice of setting is crucial for the final quality of a piece of jewelry. Our lever-back earring settings for pearls are crafted from genuine 18k gold. Unlike plated models, 750 gold is unalterable, causes no allergies, and retains its radiant shine over the years.

The "lever-back" system is favored by designers for its reliability: the rear lever closes over the peg, ensuring that the future earring remains perfectly secure. It's the ideal base for designing high-end gold lever-back earrings.

The precision of the Peg with Cup (2.80 mm)

This gold earring setting features a cup (small dish) 2.80 mm in diameter. This technical detail is essential: the cup hugs the curve of your 3 mm pearl, concealing the drilling point and providing a stable base. The notched peg ensures maximum adhesive grip for durable and professional assembly.

FAQ: All about Lever-back Earrings with Cups

What is a lever-back earring in jewelry?

A lever-back earring is a type of setting with a spring hinge at the back. This system allows the earring to close completely securely. It is called this because, historically, it was the only piece of jewelry that could be worn while sleeping without risk of loss.

How do I mount a pearl on this 18k gold lever-back earring?

Use a 3 mm half-drilled pearl. Apply a tiny drop of two-part epoxy glue to the peg and inside the cup, then insert the pearl. The 2.80 mm cup ensures a clean finish that hides the drill hole.

Why do you sell lever-back earrings by the piece?

We have chosen to sell by the unit to meet the real needs of artisans. Whether you need a single piece to repair a gold lever-back earring or several for a collection, you only pay for the gold weight you actually need.
