German term or phrase: Brisure
Brisuren, Federringschließen, Karabinerverschlüsse, Medaillons:
müssen leichtgängig zu öffnen sein und die Federkraft muss ausreichen, um den Verschluss selbständig zu schließen.

Its a text on Qualitätsrichtlinien for Jewelry products. Searched a lot but havent found the right word for Brisuren. Any ideas? Options were earring findings, leverback etc, but they dont seem to make sense.

Thanks

Explanation:
"Brisur ist ein geschlossener Ohrhaken. Mit Brisuren machen sie Ohrringe, die sie nicht verlieren. Beliebt und schon lange bekannt sind die Klappbrisuren. Der Klappmechanismus macht die Brisur so leicht zu bedienen." https://www.edelsteine.de/shop/schmuckzubehoer-silber-perlen...

In English, leverback is the name of both the earring and the closure. http://www.wisegeek.com/what-are-leverback-earrings.htm
