Earring Hooks If you love jewelry making or want to update your earring collection, we offer a wide range of earring hooks and earring settings that are perfect for any occasion.

We have different materials to choose from, including brass, hypoallergenic stainless steel, plastic and 925 sterling silver. Our stainless steel and sterling silver hooks are gentle on sensitive ears, making them ideal for people with allergies or skin sensitivities. You can choose the perfect material to suit your style and personality.

  • French Hooks with Coil and Ball

    French hooks with coil and ball are a popular choice for jewelry makers, adding a secure and decorative element to earrings. The coils help to prevent the earrings from slipping out of the earlobe inadvertently, and the ball at the base of the french hook provides a decorative element that can be used to attach beads, charms or other embellishments to the earrings.

  • Shepherds Crook Style Ear Wire

    The shepherd's crook style ear wire is a common type of earring hook that is often used in jewelry making. This type of ear wire is named for its resemblance to the crook used by shepherds to guide their flock, as it has a long, curved wire that hooks through the earlobe.

  • Flat French Hooks

    Flat French hooks are similar to traditional French hooks, but the front portion is flat, providing a more stable base for attaching beads or other decorative elements. The flat portion also helps prevent the earring from tipping forward or falling off the earlobe.

  • Earring Hooks for Cabochon

    Earring settings with a flat tray that you can add various cabochons to create personalized and unique earrings.

  • Ball End Circle Ear Wire

    Ball end circle ear wires are made from a thin wire bent into a loop with a ball at the end. The open loop is ideal for dangling charms, chains and other beaded adornments.

  • Marquise V-shaped Wire Earring Hooks

    Marquise earring hooks with a V-shaped design are versatile. They can be used for dangle earrings, chandelier earrings and statement earrings.

Real Gold Plated Jewelry Findings

Karat Gold - Understanding Gold Purity

1K Gold = 4.166% pure Gold
"K" stands for karat and indicates the percentage of gold in an alloy.

Gold Plated Information

  • Real 18K Gold plated
    Base Metal
    (Brass or Zinc Alloy
    or Stainless Steel)

    A very thin layer of 18k gold

  • Real platinum plated
    Base Metal
    (Brass or Zinc Alloy
    or Stainless Steel)

    A very thin layer of 75% Gold+ 25% Silver+Nickel+Zinc(Nickel not exceed 0.3%)

  • Real Rose Gold plated
    Base Metal
    (Brass or Zinc Alloy
    or Stainless Steel)

    A very thin layer of 75% Gold+ 25% Copper+Silver+Zinc

Our 18K gold-plated jewelry is not actually made of 18 karat gold, its base metal is usually brass, zinc alloy, sterling silver, or stainless steel. 18K gold-plated jewelry is created through electrochemical plating or chemical processes that deposit a very thin layer of 18K gold onto the base metal, with the gold layer being as thin as about 0.01 to 0.03 micrometers. Despite its thinness, there is real gold on such jewelry, even if it's just a thin layer of it.
The production principle of Real Platinum Plated and Real Rose Gold Plated jewelry is the same as 18K gold-plated jewelry, it is also created through electrochemical plating or the application of chemicals to deposit a very thin layer of karat gold over the base metal. On our website, in comparison to commonly plated products, the color durability of Real Platinum Plated and Real Rose Gold Plated jewelry is superior.

Real 18K Gold Plated VS Golden Plated

We offer two types of gold-plated jewelry: real gold-plated (12K, 14K, 18K, and 24K) and golden-plated. Below is a brief comparison between real 18K gold-plated and golden-plated items, similar to other real gold-plated pieces.

Difference Between Ion Plating (IP)
and PVD Vacuum Plating

Our stainless steel jewelry undergoes three types of electroplating processes: PVD vacuum plating, ion plating (IP), and water electroplating. Vacuum plating, also known as physical vapor deposition (PVD), is a surface treatment technology. This process involves evaporating or sputtering metal or non-metal materials under vacuum conditions and depositing them onto the surface of the object to create a thin film. PVD technology includes various coating methods, with ion plating (IP) being one of them. Ion plating (IP) is a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process that is sometimes called ion assisted deposition (IAD) or ion vapor deposition (IVD) and is a modified version of vacuum deposition.

The thickness of the plating layer is influenced by the electroplating process and duration. The longer the plating time, the thicker the layer becomes, resulting in longer color preservation.

Below is a brief comparison of the color durability of Ion Plating, PVD Vacuum Plating, and Water Galvanization.

Electroplating Process Feature Metal Color Color Durability
No Electroplating Stainless steel is a non-reactive metal, which means it does not oxidize or tarnish like other metals such as silver or brass. Hypoallergenic. Stainless Steel Color Tarnish resistant, retain its color for a long time
Vacuum Ion Plating(IP) The vacuum plating process is complex and requires specific environmental and equipment conditions, making it a green, environmentally friendly technology. The plating is done in a vacuum oven, resulting in longer color retention and a durable coating. Real Gold Plated
(14K, 18K, 24K)
Usually 1 Year
Real Rose Gold Plated Usually 6~12 Months
Rainbow Color Usually 6~12 Months
Blue Usually 6~12 Months
PVD Vacuum Plating The vacuum plating process is complex, with strict environmental and equipment requirements, making it a green, environmentally friendly technology. It also results in a durable coating. Real Gold Plated

Real Rose Gold Plated Usually 6 Months
Golden Usually 6 Months
Rose Gold Color Usually 6 Months
Water Plating "Water plating" liquid is processed in a water-based solution. Real Gold Plated
