✨ Why You’ll Love It
✓ Minimalist Heart Design: The polished 3mm heart topper adds a subtle romantic detail without overwhelming your piercing or curated ear stack.
✓ Threadless Flat Back: The push-fit topper secures inside the smooth post without fiddly screw threads, while the flat backing creates a comfortable, streamlined finish.
✓ ASTM F136 Titanium: Lightweight, durable and highly resistant to corrosion, implant-grade titanium is an excellent choice for everyday piercing jewellery.
💎 The Detail
Small, polished and easy to coordinate, this silver heart stud offers a minimalist alternative to a crystal topper. Its petite 3mm design works particularly well in helix, forward helix, flat, tragus, conch and lobe piercings.
The 16G post has an 8mm wearable length and a secure threadless push-fit closure. The straight post and flat backing create a neat finish, although the ideal fit will depend on your anatomy and piercing placement.
ASTM F136 titanium is low maintenance and suitable for everyday wear. If your piercing is new or still healing, ask a professional piercer to confirm that the 8mm length and decorative topper are appropriate before changing your jewellery.
