An imitation earring is jewelry you wear on your ear. Your favorite earrings might be tiny white pearls, or they might be long feathers that dangle to your shoulders. An earring is any kind of ring, stud, hoop, or dangling decoration that you clip on your earlobe or hook through a hole pierced in your ear.

A stud is a type of minimalist earring that has a small singular point attached to a post that passes through the earlobe to a backing. A single stud may be bare metal or adorned with a small gemstone or a singular design to draw attention to the piece.

Imitation jewelry are accessories that are made using a variety of artificial materials. It is also called 'fashion jewelry', perhaps because this is the jewelry type that allows people to experiment with different styles and trends in the most cost-effective way.
