A pierced earring construction is disclosed having an ornament formed of any suitable material and a post outwardly extending therefrom, which post is formed of or plated with a non-allergenic material and adapted for receipt in a pierced ear opening. A sleeve of generally disc-like configuration having an opening therein is adapted to be received by the post and positionable against the ornamental portion of the earring. The sleeve is also formed of a non-allergenic material and accordingly serves as a shield to prevent or reduce contact between the wearer's ear and adjacent portions of the ornament, and the connection, i.e., solder joint between the post and ornament. Additionally, the sleeve is adapted to frictionally engage the post so as to function as a fastener for connecting the post to the ornament in those cases wherein the post member is not integral with the ornament.
