Add a colourful sparkle to your piercing with this Surgical Steel Gemstone Flat Back Stud. Its polished silver-toned setting is available with a clear, aurora or pink 4mm cubic zirconia top.
✨ Why You’ll Love It
✓ Three Crystal Colours: Choose from classic Clear, iridescent Aurora or soft Pink to complement your jewellery collection.
✓ Sparkling 4mm Top: The faceted cubic zirconia creates a bright, noticeable focal point while remaining easy to coordinate with other jewellery.
✓ Flat Back Design: The 8mm post is finished with a smooth flat disc, creating a neat profile behind the piercing.
💎 The Detail
Simple, colourful and full of sparkle, this gemstone stud offers an easy way to introduce colour into a curated ear. Its classic round crystal works beautifully on its own or alongside decorative studs and hoops.
The stud measures 16 Gauge with an 8mm wearable post, 4mm gemstone top and externally threaded closure. The 8mm post provides slightly more room than a close-fitting 6mm option, but suitability will depend on your anatomy and piercing placement.
Made from 316L surgical steel for healed piercings. Surgical steel contains nickel, so ASTM F136 titanium may be a better choice if you have a known nickel sensitivity. Clean gently with mild soap and water, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth.
Sold individually.

💡 Sizing Tip
Gauge numbers work in reverse — the lower the gauge number,
the thicker the jewellery.
Piercing sizes aren't one-size-fits-all. These recommendations describe common
uses for healed piercings and are not a guarantee of fit. Always consider the
jewellery design, your piercing placement and your individual anatomy. New or
healing piercings should be sized by a professional piercer.
