The star on this piercing isn't static. It hangs from a small jump ring, which gives it a bit of its own movement. As you turn your head, the star swings and catches the light from different angles, separate from the hoop itself.

This is a C-shaped piercing with a polished ball on one end. From the curve of the hoop, a small five-pointed star hangs on its own little ring. The star itself is set with six tiny, brilliant-cut stones that catch light from every direction. The whole piece has a high-polish finish, so you'll see reflections running along the curve of the hoop and glinting off the star.

We make this from 14k solid gold, not plated or filled. It's 58.3% pure gold, alloyed for strength, which means it’s tough enough for daily wear and won't tarnish or discolour over time. It's also a good choice if you have sensitive skin. The stud is internally threaded—the screw is on the ball end, not the post. This makes insertion much smoother and less likely to irritate your piercing, especially if it's still healing.

People usually pick this one when they want more than a simple stud but don't want a full, closed ring. The dangling star adds movement that you don't get from a fixed piece. It works well in a helix or daith piercing where the drop has room to hang.
