Stud

A stud earring is a classic and stylish type of earring that comes in many different shapes, sizes, and designs. Stud earrings consist of a decorative element (often a gemstone, pearl, or a small ornament) attached to a metal post. The post goes through the pierced earlobe, and a backing secures it in place.Since you can’t see the connection, studs are often described as “floating” on the earlobe.
