This piece has a lot going on. Five different charms hang from the hoop, each on a different length of chain. It creates a small, cascading effect that moves with you, packing a lot of detail and animation into a very small space.
A polished 14k gold hoop serves as the base. Five different charms hang from it: a triangle filled with tiny stones, a polished teardrop, a five-point star, a single prong-set stone, and a textured, twisted bar. They hang from chains of varying lengths, creating an asymmetrical, layered look. The hoop is a clicker, with a small hinge that snaps securely shut.
This piercing is made from solid 14k gold, not plated. It's an alloy of 58.3% pure gold mixed with other metals for strength, which means it’s durable enough for a piece you'll wear constantly. Solid gold also won't tarnish or discolour over time, and it’s a good choice if you have sensitive skin. The hinge is tested to make sure it opens and closes securely, so you don't have to worry about it coming loose.

You get the look of a curated ear with just one piercing. The five distinct charms fill the space below the hoop, so you don't need to stack multiple pieces to get a full look. It’s an easy way to add a lot of detail and movement to a helix, daith, or lobe piercing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the dangles on the 14k gold Spring Piercing get caught in my hair or on clothes?
It’s possible, but the charms are small and lightweight, which helps minimize snagging. The chains are short and hang close to the hoop. If you have long hair, you might want to be mindful when brushing it or wear it up, especially when the piercing is new.
Is it safe to shower and sleep with the 14k gold Spring Piercing in?
Yes, you can shower and sleep with it in. Solid 14k gold is waterproof and won't tarnish from contact with water. For sleeping, try to sleep on your other side to avoid putting pressure on the piercing, especially if it’s still healing, to prevent irritation.
What ear placements work best for the Spring Piercing's size and dangles?
This piercing works well in daith and helix placements, as this gives the charms room to hang and move. It also looks great in a standard lobe piercing. The 1.25 mm post thickness is common for many cartilage piercings, but it's always good to confirm your piercing's gauge.
