Abstract: An earring assembly comprises an annular earring base with an upwardly extending threaded cylindrical collar that engages attachably with a plurality of interchangeable decorative rings. Each interchangeable decorative ring has an engagement surface with an oppositely threaded mateable formation for individually securing the ring to the base. The base is connected to attachment means for releasable attaching the base to a wearer's ear lobe, such as a post and clutch. In use, a wearer assembles the earring assembly by threading variously coloured and designed decorative rings onto the base's cylindrical collar.
