This isn't a straight, symmetrical line of stones. The baguettes are set at different angles, almost like they’re tumbling down your ear. It makes the light catch in a really interesting, unpredictable way that you don't get from a simple stud.

A staggered cluster of five rectangular baguette-cut stones and four small, round stones. Each baguette is held in a simple four-wall setting, while the rounds are secured with tiny prongs. They're arranged in an irregular line designed to climb the ear, not sit in a perfect row. The whole piece is set in polished 14k rose gold with a flat-back stud that sits flush against the skin.

We make this from solid 14k rose gold, not plated. It's 58.3% pure gold mixed with copper and other alloys for durability and that warm colour. Which means it won't flake or turn your skin green, even if you wear it 24/7. The post is internally threaded, so the screw is on the decorative front, not the backing. This gives you a smooth, rounded post to guide through your piercing, which helps avoid irritating the channel, especially in newer or sensitive piercings.

  • Material: Solid 14k Gold
  • Dimensions: 15 mm length x 6 mm width
  • Post Length: 6.5 mm (contact us for 8 mm)
  • Post Thickness: 1.2 mm (16 gauge)
  • Closure: Internally threaded stud
  • Sold as a single piece

People usually pick this one when they want a climber that isn't perfectly symmetrical. The mix of baguette and round stones gives it a more scattered, random feel than a simple bar. It's long enough to make an impression in a helix or flat piercing, but still compact enough for daily wear.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I wear the Snowfall Piercing in a new helix piercing, or should I wait?

You should wait until your piercing is fully healed before wearing the Snowfall Piercing. Because of its size and design, it can cause irritation if the piercing channel is still sensitive. We recommend using simple, smooth jewellery for the initial healing period as advised by your piercer.

Is it safe to sleep or shower with the 14k gold Snowfall Piercing in?

Yes, it's safe to sleep and shower with your solid 14k gold piercing. The material won't tarnish or discolour from water. The flat-back design is also more comfortable for sleeping than a traditional butterfly back. Just be sure to gently pat it dry afterwards to keep it clean.

How do I know if the 6.5mm post on the Snowfall Piercing will fit my ear?

A 6.5mm post is the standard length for most healed cartilage piercings like the helix, conch, or flat. The best way to be sure is to measure the post of a comfortable flat-back stud you already own, or ask your piercer. If your cartilage is thicker, we can make an 8mm post.

What happens if I order the Snowfall Piercing and it doesn't fit or I don't like it?

You can return the piercing within 30 days of receiving it, 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 the process easy. We can help you with an exchange or a full refund.

How long does shipping for a piercing take to the United States?

Shipping to the US and Canada is free for orders over $60 CAD and typically takes 5-15 business days to arrive. Orders to the UK and EU get free shipping over $110 CAD. You'll receive a tracking number as soon as your order is dispatched from our Coquitlam studio.
