The open centre of this triangle gives it a graphic, almost architectural feel. It’s defined by the outline of pavé-set stones, which catch the light from every angle, rather than a solid block of metal or a single centre stone.
This piercing is built around an open triangle frame of polished 14k gold. Each of its three sides is set with a continuous row of small, round cubic zirconia stones that glitter as you move. The post is a labret style, which means it has a flat disc on the back for a comfortable, flush fit against the skin. The front triangle screws into the post, keeping the threads away from your piercing.
We make this stud from solid 14k gold, not plated metal. It's 58.3% pure gold, with the rest being alloys that make it strong enough for daily wear. This means it won't tarnish or discolour, and it's a safe choice for sensitive skin or fresh piercings. The post is internally threaded, so the screw is on the decorative end, not the post itself. This makes for a much smoother and less irritating insertion and removal.

- Post Length: 6.5mm (contact us for 8mm)
- Post Thickness: 1.2mm (16 gauge)
- Closure: Internally threaded labret
- Sold as a single piece
People often choose this piece for its flat back, which is more comfortable for sleeping than a butterfly back, especially in a cartilage piercing. The open triangle is also a clean, geometric shape that stands out without being overly heavy or bulky on the ear.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the Triangle Piercing have an internally threaded post?
The Triangle Piercing uses an internally threaded post because it’s gentler on your piercing. The threads are on the removable triangle top, not the post that goes through your ear. This creates a smooth surface that won't scrape or irritate the piercing channel during insertion or removal.
Can I wear my 14k gold Triangle Piercing while I shower or work out?
Yes, you can wear your solid 14k gold piercing in the shower and during workouts. The material won't tarnish or be damaged by water or sweat. We just recommend giving it a gentle clean with soap and water afterward to remove any residue and keep the stones clear.
Will the 6.5mm post on the Triangle Piercing fit my helix piercing?
A 6.5mm post is a standard length for many healed helix piercings. However, cartilage thickness varies. If you have thicker cartilage or prefer a looser fit, we can make this with an 8mm post. Measuring a piece of your own well-fitting jewellery is the best guide.
