The two ends of this threader hang at different lengths. One is a solid gold post, and the other is a pear-cut stone. They'll swing and catch the light separately as you move your head. It’s a very subtle effect that you feel more than you see.
This is a single piece made from one continuous length of fine 14K gold cable chain. One end is a solid, straight post that guides the earring through your piercing. The other end is finished with a small, pear-shaped cubic zirconia. The stone is held by three minimal prongs, which lets you see more of the stone and less of the metal setting. The chain itself is delicate and has a light polish.
We make this with solid 14K gold, not plated metal. The "14K" means it's 58.3% pure gold mixed with other alloys for strength, which means it's tough enough for a thin chain like this and won't easily bend out of shape. It also means the gold colour won't fade or tarnish over time. The stone is a cubic zirconia (CZ), a lab-created crystal with a clean, bright sparkle that’s very close to a diamond's but without the same cost.
- Material: Solid 14K Gold, Cubic Zirconia
- Chain Length: 145 mm
- Sold as: A single earring
- Warranty: 2-year warranty
People usually pick this one when they want the look of a dangle earring without the weight or the fuss of a backing. Because it's sold as a single piece, it’s a good way to start an asymmetrical look or fill a second or third piercing without committing to a full pair.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does a threader earring like the Deinty Threader stay in my ear without a back?
A threader earring stays in your ear because of balance and gravity. The chain is long enough that once you pull it about halfway through your piercing, the weight on both sides keeps it securely in place. The solid post on one end makes it easy to guide through.
Can I shower or sleep with my 14K gold Deinty Threader Earring in?
Yes, you can shower in your 14K gold earring, as solid gold won't be damaged by water. We'd recommend taking it out before you sleep, though. The long, fine chain could get caught or tangled in your hair or on your bedding, which might cause it to pull.
How long does the Deinty Threader Earring hang on each side of my earlobe?
The total chain length is 145 mm, so how it hangs depends on where you centre it. If you pull it exactly to the middle, you'll have about 72 mm of chain hanging on each side. Most people let the stone side hang a bit lower for a staggered look.
What happens if I need to return my single Deinty Threader Earring?
You can return your earring within 30 days of receiving it, as long as it's in its original condition. Just email us at returns@vanhess.ca, and we'll send you a prepaid shipping label to make the process simple.
Is shipping free for a single earring order to the United States?
Shipping is free on qualifying orders to Canada and the US, which are orders over $60 CAD. Since this single earring is below that amount, a standard shipping fee would apply. Your order would typically arrive within 5-15 business days.
