EARRING BACK CONVERSION DETAILS
We are happy to announce we now have the capability to convert any
earring or cufflink into pierced professionally. Stones do not need to be removed. It is a safe, fast, permanent fusion
process which does not cause heating to the metal, enamel or stones.
So gather up your favorite vintage earrings or Grandma's
earrings that you love, but never wear because they hurt your ears, and get them converted. Maybe you have earrings with broken
backs. Problem solved with modern marvels.
Keep in mind that sometimes changing the backs destroys or hides the designer
name. We will make every effort to preserve the name, but placement thereof is everything when putting on a new back and many
of the old earring backs have the maker's name stamped right on the clip or screw back itself. Impossible to save. In
my mind, better to be able to wear and enjoy than preserve the name. But there are many purists out there.
Not all earrings can be converted due to the type of metal that was used to construct them.
Pot metal will not hold the weld and some other metals also will not hold well. Sterling, gold, gold fill & most other
metals will hold the fusion weld very well.
The cost to change the backs is $20 + cost of the finding if it is gold or silver. If
you request karat gold or sterling the cost is based on current market prices. We also have hypo-allergenic stainless
backs of any kind. Stainless backs will be included in the $20 cost. Your earrings will be professionally prepared for
the new back. Two pairs of earrings converted for $30.
If you are purchasing a pair of our earrings that are clip on or
screwback we will convert to pierced at no cost.
We can change the location of a back if you have earrings that would look
better in another position. We can also replace broken pin backs and solder jump rings on your charm bracelet. Please
make inquiry for such repairs.
