This piercing isn't symmetrical. It's a small fan of different stone cuts—pear, round, and smaller rounds—that cluster together. The layout is designed to follow the curve of an ear, especially in a helix or conch piercing, so it looks like it belongs there.
The top of this piercing is a cluster of seven stones in different sizes. A single pear-cut stone sits at the centre, angled slightly, with a larger round-cut stone right next to it. Five smaller round diamonds are set around them, creating an asymmetrical fan shape that measures 7mm across. The stones are all held by tiny gold prongs on a post with a flat disc back.
We make this from solid 14k gold, which is 58.3% pure gold. The other metals in the mix give it the strength it needs for a piece you'll wear constantly. Because it's solid gold, the colour is there all the way through, so it won't rub off or tarnish. The post is internally threaded, which means the screw is on the decorative top, not the post itself. This makes insertion smoother and far more comfortable for your piercing.

People choose this piercing for its shape. The asymmetrical fan of stones is designed to sit neatly inside the curve of a conch or along the edge of a helix. It gives you a clustered look without the bulk of multiple separate piercings, and it’s more interesting than a single stone.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Peacock Piercing fit in my tragus?
The top of the Peacock Piercing is 7mm by 5mm, which can be too large for some smaller tragus anatomies. We typically recommend it for piercings like the helix, conch, or flat, where its asymmetrical shape has room to sit properly. It's always a good idea to measure your space.
Can I shower and sleep with the 14k gold Peacock Piercing in?
Yes, you can shower and sleep with it in. Our 14k solid gold piercings are designed for continuous wear and won't be damaged by water. The flat back of the labret post is also generally more comfortable for sleeping than a butterfly back, especially for side sleepers.
How do I know if I need the 6.5mm or 8mm post for my piercing?
The 6.5mm post is standard for most healed cartilage piercings. If your piercing is new and still swollen, or if your ear is naturally thicker in that spot, the 8mm post provides extra room. It's best to have a professional piercer measure you for a perfect fit.
What happens if I order the Peacock Piercing and it doesn't fit?
We accept returns on unworn piercings within 30 days. Please email us at returns@vanhess.ca to start the process, and we'll send you a prepaid shipping label. Due to hygiene reasons, we can only accept pieces that have not been inserted into a piercing.
Is shipping free for the Peacock Piercing to the United States?
Yes, shipping is free on qualifying orders to Canada and the US, which applies to orders over $60 CAD. We also offer free shipping to the UK and EU for orders over $110 CAD. Standard shipping usually takes between 5 and 15 business days to arrive.
