Bring a little ocean-inspired sparkle to your piercing with this Crystal Turtle Flat Back Stud. Its crystal-decorated turtle adds a playful finishing touch, whether worn alone or alongside your favourite ear jewellery.
✨ Why You’ll Love It
✓ Sparkling Turtle Design: Cubic zirconia crystals bring light-catching detail to the decorative turtle topper.
✓ Internally Threaded Fastening: The topper screws into the post, keeping exposed external threads away from the piercing during insertion.
✓ Two Post Lengths: Choose a 6mm or 8mm surgical-steel post, with a flat backing for a neat finish behind the piercing.
💎 The Detail
Create a coastal-inspired ear arrangement by pairing this turtle with simple hoops or other ocean-themed pieces. Leave space around its outline so the shape remains visible without crowding neighbouring jewellery.
Choose the post length to suit your anatomy and piercing position. The topper and backing should sit comfortably without pressing into the skin; ask your piercer for sizing help if needed.
The decorative turtle contains brass, so reserve this piece for occasional wear in a fully healed piercing. Remove before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping, and avoid perfumes, lotions and abrasive cleaners to help preserve its finish.

💡 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.

Q&A
- Hi, would this be too big for a labret piercing? It's under my bottom lip. Thanks 😊
- Hi, the post is 8MM long which should be fine for most people however if you have very thin lips it may be too long.
- Hi, is there a reason why this one is 8mm only when some of the other have length options? I think 8mm will be too long for my ears as they are quite small but really want the turtle..
- Hi there, we are currently working on offering a wider range of sizes for each product, however we not all products are yet available in a range of sizes. If you would like to drop an email to jamie@cherrydiva.co.uk we can arrange for a Turtle stud with a 6MM post to be made available for you.
