Shepherd's hook findings are simple, S-shaped ear wires, also known as "French hooks," that are attached to a pair of earrings by a loop, and then slipped into the ear's piercing for a classic dangle. They come in various materials, including gold, silver, stainless steel, and plated options, and often feature a decorative ball, bead, or loop at the wire's end for charm attachment. Their main advantage is their simplicity, lightweight design, and the ease with which they can be adorned with beads, dangles, or charms to create custom jewelry.
 

Anatomy of a Shepherd's Hook
  • The Hook: A wire bent into a gentle S-shape that passes through the ear piercing. 
  • The Loop: A small circle at the top of the hook where charms, dangles, or other decorative elements can be attached. 
  • The Ball/Bead (Optional): Some findings have a small ball, bead, or other decorative element at the wire's end for a finished look. 
Materials
  • Precious Metals: Available in sterling silver, gold-filled, and solid gold. 
  • Hypoallergenic Options: Stainless steel is a popular choice for its durability and hypoallergenic qualities. 
  • Base Metals: Plated options such as bright silver, light gold, or platinum are also common. 
Uses and Advantages
  • Customization: They serve as a perfect base for making your own earrings. 
  • Easy Attachment: The open loop allows for simple attachment of pearls, gemstones, charms, or other dangles to create a custom design. 
  • Repair: Ideal for replacing broken ear wires on existing earrings, bringing new life to old favorites. 
  • Comfort: Their lightweight design makes them comfortable for extended wear. 
How to Make Earrings with Shepherd's Hooks
  1. Select Your Hook: Choose a shepherd's hook finding made from your preferred material. 
  2. Choose Your Charms: Select beads, gemstones, or other decorative components you want to dangle. 
  3. Attach the Charms: Slip the open loop of the charm or bead onto the shepherd's hook's loop. 
  4. Secure the Earring: Close the open loop on the hook by carefully bending it to secure the charm. Your custom earrings are now ready to wear or sell.
