Abstract: A jewelry design for adorning an ear which includes a conically-shaped stud mounting extending conically outward from a conical point to form a conical basket for securing a stone therein, a post with a near end attached to the conical point and a far end, and a nut engagable with the far end of the post for securing the stud mounting to the ear; a dangling element; and an intermediary connecting member which removably engages an exterior surface of the conical basket, and which includes a jump ring extending outward therefrom for flexibly supporting the dangling element so that it is removably suspendable below the stud mounting.
