The integrated hinge is one of those small design decisions that reveals itself through use: the post swings open on one side of the huggie hoop and snaps into a latch on the other, and there is no separate back to misplace or manage.
Made With Purpose
As the bar in a snap bar jewelry closure enters the snap bar housing, it contacts and compresses a spring-loaded gate. At full insertion, the spring decompresses and the gate snaps around the bar, locking it. The wearer feels that compression and release as a distinct click, and the bar stays held until the release is pressed to retract the gate.
Expertise & Authority
Long-established connections to jewelry makers and suppliers around the world means Ross-Simons' expert buyers can evaluate material at the source. Different workshops, different forming traditions, different finishing standards. The variety in the collection is a direct result of that access.
