The back of this piercing is a flat disc, designed to sit flush against your skin. It won't poke you when you're sleeping or on the phone, which makes it a really practical choice for cartilage piercings like a helix or tragus.
This is a single piercing stud made from polished 14k rose gold. A round, brilliant-cut diamond sits at the front, held securely by four prongs that let a lot of light pass through it. The post is straight and connects to a flat, circular back, which is typical for a labret stud. The whole piece has a high-shine, mirror-like finish that reflects the light.
We make this from solid 14k gold, not plated. It's 58.3% pure gold, with other alloys added for strength and colour, which means it’s durable enough to wear constantly without bending or losing its shape. Solid gold is also a great choice if you have sensitive skin, as it's unlikely to cause irritation. The back screws into the post, which means the threading never passes through your piercing, making for a much more comfortable insertion and removal.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does this diamond piercing have a flat back instead of a butterfly back?
This piercing has a flat back, known as a labret stud, because it's designed for comfort and security in cartilage piercings. Unlike a butterfly back that can poke you, the flat disc sits flush against the back of your ear, which is ideal for sleeping or wearing headphones.
Can I wear my 14k gold piercing in the shower or while swimming?
Yes, you can wear your 14k solid gold piercing in the shower. Solid gold doesn't tarnish from water. We do recommend taking it out before swimming in pools or hot tubs, though, as chlorine can be harsh on the metal and the stone's setting over time.
How do I know if the 6.5mm post length on this diamond piercing is right for my ear?
The 6.5mm post is a standard size that fits most healed cartilage piercings, like the helix, conch, and tragus. The best way to be sure is to measure the post of a current, well-fitting labret you own. If your piercing is new or your cartilage is thicker, you might need the 8mm length.
What happens if I need to return my diamond piercing?
You can return your piercing within 30 days of purchase, provided 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 the process easy for you.
How long does shipping take for a Vanhess Jewellery order to the United States or the UK?
