ABSTRACT:
A jewelry clip includes a face plate, a clamping arm, a bracket for pivotally mounting the clamping arm on the face plate, an eccentric surface on the clamping arm and a resilient brake member. The eccentric surface is formed so that sequential portions thereof are advanced toward the face plate as the clamping arm is pivoted toward the face plate. The brake member engages sequential portions of the eccentric surface to apply increasing braking pressure thereto as the clamping arm is pivoted toward the face plate in order to frictionally retain the clamping arm in a clamping position wherein the clamping arm is closely spaced rearwardly from the face plate for securing an item, such as an earlobe of a wearer, between the clamping arm and the face plate.
