### Diamond Drips Earring
This gives you the look of four studs climbing your ear, but it's actually one solid gold earring. It threads through a single piercing and stays put with a long wire that rests against the back of your ear.
This is a single piece of 14-karat gold wire, polished to a mirror finish. At the top, it's bent into a hook that goes through your piercing. A little way down the wire, four round-cut zircons are set in a tight, zig-zag cluster. Each stone is held by tiny gold prongs. The rest of the earring is a long, straight pin that acts as a counterbalance, keeping the jewelled part sitting right on your lobe.
We make this from solid 14-karat gold, not gold-plated or filled. It's 58.3% pure gold, with alloys added for strength, which means it's tough enough for you to wear constantly without worrying about it bending. Solid gold also won't tarnish or turn your skin funny colours. The stones are zircons, chosen for their bright, diamond-like sparkle. Because the whole piece is solid gold, it's a good choice if you have sensitive ears that react to other metals.

People usually pick this earring when they want the curated ear look without getting more piercings. It's a simple way to add a line of sparkle up your lobe. It's also incredibly lightweight, so you don't really feel it once it's in. It's a whole look in one piece.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Diamond Drips Earring stay in place or will it fall out?
Yes, it's designed to stay securely in place. You thread the hook through your piercing and rotate the earring up. The long pin rests against the back of your ear, using gentle pressure and gravity to keep the jewelled part from drooping or falling out.
Can I sleep or shower with my 14k gold zircon earring in?
You can definitely shower with it. Solid 14k gold won't be damaged by water. We'd suggest taking it out before you sleep, though. The long pin could get caught on your bedding or feel uncomfortable when you lie on that side.
Does the Diamond Drips Earring work with any ear piercing placement?
It works best in a standard first or second lobe piercing. The design relies on having enough space for the jewelled part to climb up your earlobe. It might not sit correctly in a helix or high-lobe piercing, as the pin in the back needs room to rest.
What happens if I get the earring and it doesn't fit my ear right?
No problem. We have a 30-day return policy for that exact reason. Just email us at returns@vanhess.ca, and we'll send you a prepaid shipping label. You can send it back for a full refund or exchange as long as it's in its original condition.
