Dangle Earrings & Post Earrings - A gross or macro means of classifying earrings considers how the earring is attached to the ear. Post earrings are attached by a relatively short silver post, which passes through the ear and clenches the earring close to the ear by means of earrings back or ear nuts. Dangle earrings pass thought the pierced hole and may be fashioned by question mark-shaped French wires or possibly by the post method with an elongated specialty design, which falls or dangles from the ear. Most earrings fall into one or these two classes of sterling silver earrings and we will further divide them here at Plum Island Silver by their form and fashion.
