An earring having a body including an outer ornamental face and spring means for resiliently clamping the body on the lobe of the wearer's ear. The spring is longitudinally oriented in generally parallel disposition to a elongated earring similarly configured body and is disposed in opposition to the inner surface of the body so as to in cooperation therewith form a pocket for the receipt of the wearer's ear lobe. The spring generally bridges opposed ends of the body and terminates at one end in an enlarged head to form a narrowed entrance to the pocket. The spring is preferably of helical construction in exhibiting a plurality of individual coils which enables the enlarged head portion thereof to assume a plurality of positions with respect to the inner surface of the body.
