The stones on this hoop aren't just set in a simple line. They're arranged in a fanning arc, like a small crown that sits along the curve of your ear. The mix of marquise and round cuts gives the front-facing part a really specific, textured profile.
This is a hinged hoop, sometimes called a clicker, made of polished rose gold. The bottom half is set with a spray of clear stones that face forward. You've got a row of tiny pavé-set rounds lining the inside curve, and then larger stones fanning out from it. There are marquise cuts pointing outwards and a few larger rounds mixed in, with the biggest one sitting at the bottom centre.
We make this from solid 14k gold, not plated. 14k gold is 58.3% pure gold mixed with alloys for strength, which means it's durable enough for a piece you'll wear constantly without it bending out of shape. It also won't tarnish or turn your skin funny colours. The hinged segment clicks securely into place, so you don't have to worry about losing a tiny screw-in ball, and it's smooth to insert through your piercing.

This hoop is for when you want something more decorative than a plain ring in your daith or septum. The fan of stones is designed to face forward and follow the curve of the cartilage. It has a visible presence that a simple captive bead ring doesn't, but it's still small enough that it doesn't feel heavy or get in the way.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the crown part of the Crown Hoop Piercing rotate and end up inside my ear?
It's designed to be bottom-heavy, so the stones should naturally stay facing down and forward in a daith or septum piercing. While any hoop can rotate a bit with movement, the weight distribution on this one helps keep the decorative part visible where you want it.
Is it safe to shower with my 14k gold Crown Hoop Piercing in?
Yes, you can shower with it in. Solid 14k gold isn't harmed by water or mild soap. We just recommend giving it a gentle rinse and pat dry afterwards to prevent soap scum from building up around the stones, which can dull their sparkle over time.
How do I know if the Crown Hoop Piercing will fit my daith piercing properly?
The best way is to measure the inner diameter of a hoop that already fits you well, or ask your piercer what diameter they'd recommend for your anatomy. This hoop has a post thickness of 1.2 mm (16 gauge), which is a common size for daith piercings.
What happens if I get the Crown Hoop Piercing and it doesn't fit or I don't like it?
