Secure Wrapped Argentium Sterling Ear Hooks - Expertly Handmade

Description

This listing for one pair.

Do you ever worry about your ear hooks becoming detached from your earrings? Do you have a customer who always seems to loose her earring because the loop opened up and the dangle fell off? No need to worry about that with these ear hooks!!!

The loops on these ear hooks are wrapped. They DO NOT open. All you have to do is securely attach your dangle, making a wrapped loop with your head pin, and you have a very secure earring.

I make these with 20 gauge Half Hard Argentium sterling silver wire (very strong, and tarnish resistant)). The front edge is lightly hammered, and the ends are filed smooth.

Did you kow that improperly made ear hooks can scratch or cut your ear lobes leading to infection and permanent damage? It's true, and I see dangerous ear hooks made all the time (hand-made AND factory made). Not mine. I pay very close attention to important details in making my ear hooks. The part of of the hook that rests in your lobe should always be round. Wire that is hammered flat, if it's sitting in your ear lobe, is more likely to cut through your ear if it gets pulled on. The ends of the wire should also be rounded: sharp edges and burs from cutting the wire can scratch the inner part of your ear lobe as you put the earring on. I use a fine metal file to smooth and round the end of the wire so that it is not sharp.

Love these? Want more than one pair? Easy enough. Just let me know. Custom order bulk listing discounts are available.
