Most people notice the pear-cut stone first, but the real secret to this piercing is the back. It’s a small, clover-shaped disc that sits completely flat against your skin. It won't poke you, even if you sleep on it in a fresh cartilage piercing.
This is a single stud piercing made from highly polished 14k rose gold. At the front, a pear-cut cubic zirconia sits in a three-prong setting, leaving the stone almost entirely open to catch light. The post is attached to a flat, four-leaf clover-shaped back that’s designed to lie flush against your skin.
We make this from solid 14k gold, which means it's over 58% pure gold alloyed for durability. It won't flake, tarnish, or turn your skin green, even if you wear it 24/7. The stone is a brilliant-cut cubic zirconia, a very convincing diamond alternative. It's an internally threaded stud, which means the screw is on the decorative top, not the post. This gives you a completely smooth bar that won't scrape or irritate your piercing on the way in.

You'd pick this piece for its comfort in tricky spots. The pear shape is a classic, but the flat, clover-shaped back is what makes it so wearable for helix, conch, or tragus piercings. It’s designed not to poke you when you’re on the phone or sleeping on your side.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the Dainty Pear Piercing have an internally threaded post?
The post is internally threaded for a smoother, safer insertion. The screw is on the decorative top, not the post, which means the bar that passes through your piercing is completely smooth. This design prevents the threads from scraping or irritating healing or sensitive skin during insertion and removal.
Can I shower with my 14k gold pear piercing in?
Yes, you can and should shower with your solid 14k gold piercing in. The material won't tarnish or be damaged by water and gentle soap. Letting warm water run over the piercing is actually a great way to gently clean away any buildup without having to remove the jewellery.
Will the 6.5mm post on the Dainty Pear Piercing fit my tragus piercing?
A 6.5mm post is a standard length that fits most healed tragus, helix, and lobe piercings, but everyone's anatomy is different. We recommend measuring the post of an existing stud that fits you well, or consulting your professional piercer. We can also provide an 8mm length on request.
What happens if the pear piercing doesn't fit or I change my mind?
You can return the piercing within 30 days of purchase for a full refund. Just send an email to returns@vanhess.ca, and we'll reply with a prepaid shipping label and instructions. The jewellery must be in its original, unworn condition to be eligible for a return.
How long does shipping take for jewellery orders to the United States?
Shipping to the US and Canada typically takes 5-15 business days and is free on orders over $60 CAD. We also offer free shipping to the UK and Europe on orders over $110 CAD. You'll receive an email with a tracking number as soon as your order has been dispatched.
