earring back
Jewelry securing piece
An earring back is the small piece that secures a post earring to the ear, fastening behind the earlobe.
Also called an earring clutch or butterfly back for the most common wing-shaped design.
I lost an earring back and had to use a pencil eraser as a temporary fix.
