It's usually a simple matter to select earrings for her. Here's some information about the history of earrings and ear piecing that might help you select just the perfect Christmas gift or birthday gift for your spouse.

Mechanics of Ear Piercing

From ancient times to modern, both men and women have pierced their ears. The most typical place for a piercing is the earlobe, but there are several other areas of the ear where piercing is common. "Cartilage piecing" is the practice of locating an ear pierce in an area other than the lobe. Regardless of the location of the pierce, the process is the same. Modern piercings are done in a sanitary way to assure that there's no exposure to diseases or infection. Ear piercing is usually done with a disposable, single-use "gun" that's "loaded" with a stud. Pressure "shoots" the stud into the ear and a clutch is fitted over the end of the stud to hold the earring in place.
