This isn't a static stud. The bottom round stone is attached by a tiny two-link chain, so it swings and catches light as you turn your head. It's a small detail that gives a classic piercing shape a bit of life and movement.

You're looking at a flat-back piercing made of polished 14k rose gold. The main stone is a marquise cut, held vertically by two prongs. Hanging from its base is a short, two-link chain connected to a smaller, round-cut stone. This second stone sits in a four-prong basket, allowing it to dangle and move freely. The combination of the long marquise and the sparkling round stone creates a nice contrast.

We make this from solid 14k gold, not plated. That's 58.3% pure gold mixed with alloys for strength, which means it won't flake, tarnish, or turn your skin a different colour. It's hypoallergenic and safe for brand-new or sensitive piercings. The stud is internally threaded, so the post that goes through your ear is completely smooth. This makes insertion and removal much more comfortable, as there are no threads to scrape against your skin.

You get the look of a dangle earring but with the security and comfort of a flat-back stud. It's a good way to add movement to a helix or conch piercing without a long chain that might get caught. The mix of the two different stone cuts gives it more visual texture than a single stud.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the dangle on the Marquise & Round Piercing get caught in my hair?

It's possible, but the dangle is very short and sits close to the ear, making it less likely to snag than longer earrings. For a flat or conch piercing, it's fairly protected. If you wear it in your helix, you might just be a bit more mindful when brushing your hair.

Can I shower or sleep with my 14k gold piercing in?

Yes, you can shower and sleep in your 14k solid gold piercing. Solid gold won't tarnish or get damaged by water, and the flat-back design is made for comfortable, long-term wear, even for side sleepers. We just recommend giving it a gentle clean with soap and water periodically.

How do I know if the 6.5mm post length is right for my ear piercing?

The 6.5mm post is a standard size that fits most healed lobe, helix, and flat piercings. The best way to know for sure is to measure the post of a flat-back earring that already fits you well. If your cartilage is on the thicker side, contact us and we can make this with an 8mm post.

What happens if I order the piercing and it doesn't fit?

We accept returns on piercings within 30 days, provided they are unworn and in their original sealed packaging for hygiene reasons. Just email us at returns@vanhess.ca, and we will provide a prepaid shipping label and instructions to arrange a return for an exchange or refund.

How long does shipping take for orders to the United States?

Shipping to the US is free on orders over $60 CAD and usually takes 5 to 15 business days. Once your jewellery ships from our Coquitlam studio, we'll send you a tracking number so you can watch its progress as it makes its way to you.
