Enameled Golden Heart Piercing -Single

Looking for a pop of colour for your ear stack? This little enameled heart stud is exactly what your helix or lobe needs. Bright, playful, and brings a whole lot of personality to your everyday look.

Up close, it's all about that striking pop of colour. The centre features smooth, glossy enamel in a deep, vibrant candy apple red. A polished gold border wraps securely around it, framing the classic heart shape. We designed this with a comfortable flat back, which means you can wear it day and night without it poking you behind the ear.

We cast this in 14K solid gold. That's exactly 58.3% pure gold, mixed with stronger alloys for serious durability. Pure gold is too soft for body jewellery you wear constantly. By using 14K, you get that rich, warm yellow tone that holds up to daily life, which means it won't bend when you sleep on it. The red enamel is carefully set and fired to create a hard, scratch-resistant surface.

Material: 14K solid gold
Accent: Candy apple red enamel centre
Style: Flat-back piercing stud (labret style)
Sold as: A SINGLE EARRING
Best for: Lobe, cartilage, tragus, or helix piercings
Warranty: 2-year warranty

Sometimes your ear stack just needs a little bit of fun. This red heart breaks up a sea of plain gold hoops and simple studs. Incredibly comfortable for everyday wear, giving you a cheerful detail that feels completely effortless.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I sleep with this in?

Yes. The flat-back disc sits flush against your skin. No sharp post poking your head at night.

Will the red enamel fade?

We use hard-fired enamel that's highly resistant to scratching. Just keep it away from harsh chemicals to maintain the glossy finish.

Is 14K gold safe for sensitive ears?

Yes. Solid metal rather than plated means nothing to wear off and expose reactive base metals. Most people with sensitivities wear our 14K gold without issues.

What if it's not right for me?

You have 30 days to return unworn items. Email returns@vanhess.ca for a prepaid return label.

How long does shipping take?
