ABSTRACT:
A jewelry article comprising a sleeve having a groove at one end and a central bore hole going substantially therethrough the sleeve, and a face piece having at least one tongue and spring bias means, which when a tongue of the face piece is inserted into the groove of the sleeve secures the two together such that when an earring post is inserted into the borehole of the sleeve the tongue will, under the spring bias means, secure the earring post to the sleeve. The sleeve and face are made of inert materials. If the tongue is indented from the plane of the face piece then when the face piece is tilted away (i.e., at an acute angle to the axis of the central borehole from being perpendicular to the axis of the bore hole, then even larger diameter earring posts can be entered. The jewelry article will upon the above-described assembly prevent irritation and inflammation due to contact from non-hypo-allergenic and hygroscopic materials with the skin because the earring post never touches the skin due to the sleeve barrier.
