Kidney Ear Wires | Sterling Silver | Jewelry Making Supplies | Made in USA
The kidney wire's looping, self-latching shape solves the oldest earring problem there is: backs that vanish. The wire curves around and tucks into its own catch, so a finished dangle stays put through workouts, errands, and long days — no backing required.

These are bent from 22-gauge .925 sterling silver and polished to a mirror brightness that flatters any bead or stone you hang from them. Each wire measures approximately 25mm by 23mm (0.984" by 0.902"), and a pair weighs a feathery 0.793 grams. They are produced in the USA and free of nickel and lead, which matters to anyone whose ears protest cheap findings.
For jewelry makers, kidney wires are the dependable workhorse: slide a charm or wrapped briolette onto the lower curve and the piece is done. They suit production runs and one-of-a-kind commissions alike, and they pair well with heavier drops that would tug an ordinary hook loose.
Keep several pairs stashed in the supply drawer; of everything on the bench, this is the finding you will run out of first.
