The origins of the word earwig

Erotic connotations have long been associated with the ear (itself associated with the female sex) and the flea and its 'bite' causing very particular itching at this place ...
The particularity of the diamond ear fleas is to give the impression that they "float" on the earlobe without fixation (visible). They are made of a stem that crosses the pierced ear. This stem is maintained in place by a specific clasp, see Alpa system explained below.

All night long, they say, has a chip on her shoulder

Symbolism of the ear chip

The symbolism is organized around the feminine character of the ear. The role of the diamond earring is aesthetic, it aims to attract the eye to the ear, this complex organ too often masked by the hair. The earrings are jewels that are out of the ordinary, because they are worn in pairs. Man has two arms, two legs but it would never occur to anyone to wear two identical rings or bracelets. Thus, the ear chips, since they are double are the mark of an autonomy of the woman who knows how to exceed the unit of the male phallus.

The chips of ear are a metaphor of the female sex. In their duplicity, they participate in a double game of coquetry: that of oneself and that for the other. Symbol of femininity, ear chips are sometimes voluntarily hidden.  The philosopher proposes then to compare the passive character of the ear to that of the female sex and demonstrates in that the necessary link between the ear chips - which emphasize the ear - with the femininity.

Our diamond earrings are made in France and are made to measure with a high quality finish.  Each diamond earring is equipped with the Alpa clasp system for pierced ears: these are small discs whose slightly curved part is stuck behind the ear. On both sides of this disc, two serrated tabs activate springs that will click on the notch of the stem. Thus the ear chip is always well fixed and easily.

For the purchase of pairs of diamonds for diamond ear chips with an individual weight of less than 0.30 carats (0.60 carats together) we recommend diamonds not certified by a gemological laboratory because of their low weight (<0.30 Ct): the cost of the certificate is too high for diamonds less than 0.30 carats. However our rigorous grading is in accordance with the gemological rules, and we guarantee the quality on invoice for all qualities (white diamond minumum H clarity Si or better) and all weights from 0.20 carats.
