This piece uses a single labret stud to anchor a long, curved bar that sweeps up the ear. It's a lot of look—a cascade of chains and a full-ear curve—all held in place by just one piercing.
You're looking at two views of a single piercing. It starts with a flat-back labret stud. From there, a thin gold bar curves upwards, designed to follow the line of your ear. A row of five short chains, each ending in a light blue stone set in a tiny hexagon, hangs from the curve. The bar ends with a straight, beaded section that rests against the top of the ear.
We make this from 14-karat solid gold, not plated or filled. It's 58.3% pure gold blended with other metals for strength, which means it’s durable enough for a piece with so many moving parts. Solid gold won't tarnish or wear off, so the colour you see is the colour it will always be. It’s also a good choice for sensitive skin, especially in a new piercing, as it’s biocompatible.
- Material: 14 Karat Solid Gold
- Stones: Bezel-set light blue stones
- Post Type: Flat-back labret stud
- Sold As: Single Piercing
- Warranty: 2 Year Warranty
This piece gives you the layered look of a cuff and multiple dangles, but it all anchors to a single piercing. If you want a full-ear style without committing to several new piercings, this is how you do it. It fills the space beautifully by itself.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Willow Piercing actually stay on my ear if it's so long?
The Willow Piercing is secured by a single 14k gold labret stud that goes through your piercing. The curved bar then sweeps up and rests against the natural curve of your ear, with the beaded end sitting on your upper cartilage, much like a cuff.
Is it safe to shower or sleep with the 14k gold Willow Piercing in?
Yes, you can shower in it. 14k solid gold is waterproof and won't tarnish. We'd suggest being careful while sleeping, especially for the first few months, as the long bar could get caught. Many people find they adjust to it and can sleep comfortably.
What kind of piercing do I need for the Willow Piercing to fit properly?
This piercing is designed for a standard helix or conch piercing. The labret stud goes through the hole, and the decorative bar curves up and over your ear's cartilage. The final fit depends on your individual ear anatomy, but it's made to be quite versatile.
What happens if I get the Willow Piercing and it doesn't fit my ear shape?
You can return the piercing within 30 days of receipt for a full refund, as long as it's in its original, unworn condition. Just email us at returns@vanhess.ca, and we'll send you a prepaid shipping label to make it easy.
