Add delicate sparkle to your ear stack with this 16 Gauge Crystal Vine Cartilage Stud. Featuring a sweeping crystal-set vine design, it’s available in Silver or Gold for an elegant statement finish.
✨ Why You'll Love It
✔ Crystal Vine Design: Sparkling cubic zirconia follows the curved vine-inspired topper, creating a more distinctive look than a traditional single-crystal cartilage stud.
✔ Compact 6mm Fit: The 16 gauge straight bar has a 6mm wearable length, giving the decorative design a neat profile in compatible healed ear piercings.
✔ Silver or Gold: Choose cool Silver or warm Gold to coordinate the crystal vine with the rest of your jewellery stack.
💎 The Detail
Elegant and light-catching, the elongated vine design works particularly well as a feature piece within a curated ear stack. Its sweeping silhouette adds more visual interest than a round stud while remaining easy to combine with smaller crystals and hoops.
This stud is 16 gauge (1.2mm) with a 6mm wearable length and externally threaded construction. It features a 316L surgical steel post with detailed brass vine decoration, cubic zirconia and a 4mm ball end. Available in Silver or Gold and sold individually. Best suited to compatible, fully healed ear piercings. Because the decorative design contains brass, keep the jewellery dry and remove before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping.
