Oval Leverback Earring Mountings in 14K Yellow Gold

A pair of 14K yellow gold leverback earring mountings with polished oval heads sized for 8x6mm stones, finished with secure hinged leverback closures.

Mountings are unset jewelry frames intended to receive gemstones of a specified shape and size, allowing a jeweler to complete the piece with stones chosen by the wearer. The leverback closure — a hinged lever that snaps closed behind the earlobe — is widely regarded as one of the most secure earring backs in fine jewelry, a standard for drop and dangle earrings where stone weight makes friction-back posts less reliable.

The 8x6mm oval seat accommodates a wide range of colored gemstones, from sapphire and ruby to amethyst, citrine, peridot, and topaz. The drop format keeps the stones in motion against the jawline, and the warm yellow gold tone flatters most colored stones. Suits a buyer commissioning a custom pair, a jeweler sourcing findings, or a gift designed around a meaningful birthstone.
