Abstract
An earring back for secure but easily releasable engagement with an earring post or extension is provided. In an embodiment, the earring back includes an outer casing and an internal, compressible material such as silicone. The earring back further defines a center opening for receiving and engaging with an earring post or extension. In an embodiment, the outer casing comprises two pieces. A first piece is a back piece with an enclosed back end, an open opposite end providing access to an inner cavity, and a lip extending laterally from the open end. The second piece is a front piece having a radius larger than the radius of the lip of the back piece and defining the center opening. In an embodiment, a circumferential portion of the casing front piece is folded over and around a lip of the compressible material and the casing back piece lip and compressed.
