Add a delicate nature-inspired detail to your piercing with this Silver Crystal Hummingbird Flat Back Stud. It combines a 316L surgical steel post with an intricately shaped brass hummingbird topper, finished with tiny clear cubic zirconia crystals for a subtle touch of sparkle.
✨ Why You’ll Love It
✔ Crystal Hummingbird Design: The detailed 8mm bird topper is decorated with clear cubic zirconia for a distinctive, light-catching finish.
✔ Internally Threaded Flat Back: The smooth post inserts through the piercing without exposed external threads, while the flat backing creates a neat finish.
✔ Two Post Lengths: Choose from a close-fitting 6mm post or a roomier 8mm option, depending on your piercing placement and anatomy.
💎 The Detail
Delicate, sparkling and full of character, this silver-toned hummingbird stud offers a more playful alternative to a traditional crystal topper. Its detailed silhouette and tiny clear stones make it a beautiful focal point for helix, flat and conch placements or a nature-inspired curated ear.
Choose from a 6mm or 8mm wearable post length. The 8mm hummingbird topper is relatively substantial, so check that there is enough space around your piercing for it to sit comfortably without pressing against surrounding jewellery or the edge of your ear.
The decorative topper contains brass, so keep this piece dry and reserve it for occasional wear in a fully healed piercing. Remove before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping.

"Gorgeous, one of my faves so far."
Beautiful!
"Beautiful little stud. It doesn't catch my hair or anything and sits nicely in my ear"
Good quality but fiddly to change
"Nice quality but super fiddly to change! The hummingbird has a tiny bar on the back to slot into the labret bar and is difficult to put in (due to internally threading)"
