Ear clip with friction-retained gripping portions

摘要

A two-part ear ornament clip of known type, whose pivotally connected front and back parts are so dimensioned and connected to one another that, in the open condition of the clip, the front part is supported by the back part in a manner which greatly facilitates the handling and application of said clip by the wearer to her ear lobe. Moreover, said front and back parts are such that, when said parts are in their lobe-gripping positions relative to one another, the portion of the front part to which the ornament would be secured is directly opposite the portion of the back part which is in contact with the inside face of the ear lobe.
