These aren't quite infinity symbols. They're more like a single loop of gold, pinched in the middle to form a delicate bow shape. The little stone sits right in that central twist, holding the form together.
This is a pair of studs made from polished 14K gold. Each one is a continuous loop, twisted at its centre to look like a small bow or a horizontal figure eight. Right where the gold crosses over, a single, round Cubic Zirconia is secured by four tiny prongs. The surface of the gold is smooth and curved, so it catches light along its entire length. The stones are brilliant-cut, so they throw back little points of white light.
We make these from solid 14 Karat gold, not plated or filled. It’s 58.3% pure gold, with other metals mixed in for strength. Which means you get the rich colour and hypoallergenic quality of gold, but in a form that’s tough enough to handle being worn all the time without bending or scratching easily. The stone is a Cubic Zirconia, which is very hard and has a brilliance that's almost identical to a diamond's. It's a durable stone that won't cloud over time.
- Material: 14K Solid Gold
- Stone: Cubic Zirconia
- Dimensions: Approx. 5mm across
- Sold as a pair
You’d pick these if you want a stud that's more than just a single stone, but still want something small and flat for your main or second piercing. The shape has some character, but at 5mm across, they’re subtle enough that they won’t get in the way.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the 14K gold in these Bow Studs cause a reaction if I have sensitive ears?
It's unlikely. Our 14K gold is a great choice for sensitive skin because it's over 58% pure gold and completely nickel-free. Most metal allergies are triggered by nickel, so by leaving it out, we make our earrings comfortable for almost everyone to wear continuously.
Is it safe to wear my gold Bow Studs in the shower or while I sleep?
Yes, you can wear them in the shower and while sleeping. Solid 14K gold doesn't tarnish or get damaged by water. Because these are small, flat studs, they are also quite comfortable to sleep in and shouldn't snag on your bedding or hair.
How do the 5mm Bow Studs fit in a second or third lobe piercing?
They fit really well in second or third piercings. At 5mm across, they're small enough to sit neatly next to other earrings without looking crowded. The horizontal shape also follows the curve of the ear, which creates a nice, stacked look when you pair them with hoops.
What happens if I receive the Bow Studs and decide they're not for me?
You can return them within 30 days of delivery for a full refund. Just send an email to returns@vanhess.ca, and we'll reply with a prepaid shipping label and instructions. We just ask that the earrings are returned in their original, unworn condition.
