This is great but I
"This is great but I think the length was a bit short for my helix piercing. I also think my piecing was back to front for this as I had to have the screw bit at the back? Otherwise it is really cool"

Jewellery is purchased separately.
Available in silver or gold, this 16 Gauge Dangling Crystal Chain Barbell Stud features a durable 316L surgical steel bar with detailed brass chain accents and sparkling cubic zirconia. The layered chains create delicate movement between the polished ball ends, combining an alternative jewellery-inspired look with plenty of light-catching detail.
✨ Why You'll Love It
✔ Dangling Chain Design: Delicate chains drape between the ends of the barbell, adding movement and dimension for a distinctive look that stands out from a classic straight stud.
✔ Sparkling Crystal Detail: Cubic zirconia adds a subtle touch of sparkle to the design, balancing the edgy chain styling with a more jewellery-inspired finish.
✔ Easy to Style: The combination of polished ball ends, fine chains and crystal detail creates an eye-catching focal point that's easy to wear alone or incorporate into a more detailed piercing look.
💎 The Detail
Edgy, delicate and full of movement, this Dangling Crystal Chain Barbell Stud gives classic piercing jewellery a more decorative twist. The layered chain detail moves naturally when worn, while the polished ball ends and sparkling crystal accents keep the overall design refined rather than overly heavy.
Available in silver or gold with a 16 gauge (1.2mm) 316L surgical steel bar and 8mm wearable length, the decorative chains are crafted from brass and finished with cubic zirconia detail. It can be styled in compatible piercings where a straight 8mm barbell suits your individual anatomy and placement.
Stainless steel piercing forceps help grip jewellery securely when opening hoops or unscrewing tight posts or ball ends.
These are the measurements for this exact piece of jewellery. Compare them with jewellery that already fits you comfortably if you're unsure.

CARE & LONGEVITY
A little thoughtful care will help your jewellery look its best for longer.
This design contains brass and should be kept dry and worn only in fully healed piercings. Remove before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping.
Jewellery containing brass is best reserved for occasional wear. Remove it before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping to help protect the decorative finish.
Brass can react to water, sweat, perfume and lotions. Keep this piece dry and avoid contact with swimming pools, seawater, cleaning products and cosmetics.
Wipe gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. If necessary, use a very lightly dampened cloth and dry immediately. Avoid soaking, abrasive cleaners and jewellery-polishing chemicals.
Avoid bleach, alcohol, abrasive cleaners and other harsh chemicals.
Store your jewellery somewhere clean and dry, ideally separately from other pieces to prevent scratches or tangling. The pouch provided with your order is perfect for keeping it protected.
Take extra care with dangling details and chains, which can catch on clothing or become tangled during storage.
Apply perfume, moisturiser and hairspray before putting on your jewellery. Avoid abrasive cloths, polishing treatments and prolonged exposure to chlorine or seawater.
Although this piece may have a durable metal bar, its brass detailing needs extra care. Always follow the guidance for the most delicate material and keep the entire piece dry.
Jewellery care is different from piercing aftercare. If your piercing is new, irritated or still healing, speak to a professional piercer before changing your jewellery.
