    mystery solved 

    Hi All; 

    Well, I finally got a hold of the jeweler who originally provided my
    account's customer with the mysterious combination omega/screw back
    earrings. Turns out, my first guess was right, and the same as a
    number of suggestions I got from you folks (thanks Noel and others).
    These are the friction back earrings with an adjustable pad in the
    back, actually designed to accommodate a pearl. Typical case of a
    description being translated through several non-jewelers.
    Meanwhile, in speaking with the jeweler, who was very pleasant and
    helpful, I found out she is an experienced pearl stringer working in
    Boston. Now I don't have to pester my wife to do it. Thanks for all
    the helpful suggestions. 

David L. Huffman
