Available in silver or gold, this 16 Gauge Threadless Crystal Petal Cartilage Stud combines a durable 316L surgical steel flat-back post with a detailed brass floral topper and sparkling cubic zirconia. The delicate crystal-set petals create an elegant botanical focal point, while the easy threadless fitting and smooth 8mm flat back give the design a clean, streamlined finish.
✨ Why You'll Love It
✔ Crystal Petal Design: Sparkling cubic zirconia forms a delicate floral-inspired topper with plenty of light-catching detail, making the stud easy to wear alone or layer within a curated ear stack.
✔ Easy Threadless Fit: The push-fit topper secures into the post without traditional screw threads, creating a simple, streamlined jewellery construction.
✔ Smooth Flat Back: The 8mm flat-back post creates a neat finish behind the piercing without a traditional ball end, making it a versatile option for compatible cartilage and lobe placements.
💎 The Detail
Pretty, sparkling and effortlessly versatile, this Threadless Crystal Petal Cartilage Stud brings delicate floral styling to a classic flat-back silhouette. The crystal-set petals catch the light beautifully while remaining compact enough to coordinate with hoops, huggies and smaller studs.
Available in silver or gold, this 16 gauge (1.2mm) stud features an 8mm 316L surgical steel flat-back post with a detailed brass topper and cubic zirconia. It can be styled in compatible helix, flat, forward helix, tragus, conch, lobe and labret piercings. The correct post length and jewellery style will depend on your individual anatomy and piercing placement.
Make changing your jewellery easier

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.
Avoid knocking, pulling or catching crystal settings on clothing. Clean around decorative details gently and avoid soaking or using abrasive brushes.
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.
