💎 The Detail
Simple, versatile and easy to incorporate into any curated ear, this silver-toned crystal stud offers an understated alternative to larger decorative toppers. Its 3mm clear crystal makes it ideal for creating a subtle focal point or adding extra sparkle between statement pieces.
The stud measures 16G (1.2mm) thick and is available with a 6mm or 8mm wearable post length. The 6mm option provides a closer fit for many healed cartilage piercings, while the 8mm post allows additional room.
This piece has a flat backing and an externally threaded crystal topper. Because the external threads pass through the piercing during insertion, it should only be used in a fully healed piercing.
Made from ASTM F136 implant grade titanium with a clear cubic zirconia stone. Clean gently using mild soap and warm water, rinse thoroughly and dry completely. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaners.

CARE & LONGEVITY
A little thoughtful care will help your jewellery look its best for longer.

Titanium is well suited to everyday wear. Check your jewellery regularly and make sure threaded or push-in ends remain secure.
After contact with sweat, seawater or chlorinated water, rinse your jewellery with clean water and dry it thoroughly using a soft cloth.
Clean gently using warm water and a mild, fragrance-free soap. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth before wearing or storing.
Avoid bleach, alcohol, abrasive cleaners and other harsh chemicals.
