  • Patent number: 7082788
    Abstract: A secure interchangeable charm earring system, for use with pieced ears, includes an earring body from which a charm hangs. Numerous charms having different ornamental forms can be interchanged on the earring, each having a charm opening. The earring has a body having a free end, a blocked end larger than the charm opening, and an apex portion therebetween. A spiraling middle portion extends between the apex portion and the free end, and a vertical piece extends between the apex portion and the blocked end. When the charm is brought into contact with the blocked end, the charm is not permitted to pass over the blocked end. When the earring is in place within the pieced ear hole, the earring hangs down from the pieced ear, with the apex portion extending through the hole. The charm is then maintained securely on the earring between the blocked end and the pieced ear.
