There are so many ear wire options to choose from when designing earrings. The answer to the question, “When do I design with ear wires, post earrings or wire earrings” is not really profound. Sorry. It really comes down to what “feels” right. I like to have a variety of options because sometimes I find the Kidney Ear Wires to be too long, so then we have the smaller size. Sometimes I like to have a simple ear wire, so not to compete with the design. Other times, I want a really vintage look, so I go with the Leverback Earwires. And then, I’m also thinking about the market. Some people prefer posts. Some people like Itsy, some larger hoops. Here is some inspiration showing the various ear wires that Nunn Design has available to you.
