Service details

Replace or convert your earring backs

Have a pair of studs that would make better drop earrings? Or do you feel more secure with screw backs? This service allows you to convert or replace the backing style on your existing earrings to better match your comfort, security, and wear preference.

Our Earring Back Conversion Service modifies your current post-back earrings by removing the existing backs or posts and replacing them with a new style, including:

  • Standard friction posts
  • Screw back posts
  • Omega backs
  • Lever backs
  • Kidney or wire backs

Please complete the form and upload clear photos of your earrings when placing your order. This allows our jewelers to accurately evaluate the work. If additional details are needed, our team will contact you before proceeding.

Note: The listed price covers labor only. The cost of new posts, backs, or components is not included and may vary based on metal type and backing style.

★★★★★

“Bought earrings at Barneys NYC and the backing immediately broke. They told me it would take weeks to fix and weren't even sure if they could do it. They suggested I go to the diamond district in nyc but with my busy schedule I just didn't see that happening. I then heard about quick jewelry repairs and it was one of the most seamless experiences ever. You fill-out a simple form, print a fedex label and send ur earrings out. I immediately got an email update that my earrings were em route to then followed by a phone call upon receiving. The jeweler was patient and knowledgeable telling me all my options for repair. I then got an email my earrings were coming back to me and next thing I know I have them back with an extra set of backings. Better then when I bought them.amazing service, will definitely use it again and recommend. Also, price was extremely reasonable, I would have paid more in diamond district.”
