Three stones, one clean line. We set these CZs right up against each other in a solid gold bar, so there are no gaps. From a distance, it just looks like a single slash of light on your ear, giving you a stacked look with a single piercing.

Look closely at the front. It’s a solid little bar of polished 14k gold. We've set three brilliant-cut CZs in a vertical line inside it. The edges of the setting are finished with a milgrain texture—those tiny beads of gold you can see. The post is completely smooth, and it screws into a flat, flower-shaped back that sits flush against your skin.

We make this piece from solid 14k gold, not gold-plated. It’s 58.3% pure gold mixed with alloys for strength, which means it’s tough enough for daily wear and won't tarnish or discolour over time. It's also a good choice if you have sensitive skin. The post is internally threaded, which means the screw is on the post itself, not the decorative end. This creates a smooth tip, so it won't scrape your piercing when you're putting it in or taking it out.

You'd choose this for its shape. A single round stud can get lost, but this little bar has a definite direction and line. It's great for a helix or tragus piercing where you want to follow the curve of the ear, and the flat back means you can sleep in it without it digging in.
