"Great little earring, struggled to open it at first as it was fastened on so tight, but lovely once I did."
Available in silver or gold, this 16 Gauge Internally Threaded Dangling Crystal Heart Stud features a durable 316L surgical steel flat-back post with a detailed brass heart charm. Sparkling cubic zirconia and delicate dangling movement create a pretty, jewellery-inspired focal point that's easy to style within both minimal and more detailed piercing combinations.
✨ Why You'll Love It
✔ Dangling Crystal Heart Design: The petite heart charm is finished with sparkling cubic zirconia, creating a feminine focal point with beautiful light-catching detail and subtle movement when worn.
✔ Internally Threaded Flat Back: The threaded section is contained within the post rather than passing through your piercing, while the smooth flat back creates a sleek and streamlined finish.
✔ Easy to Style: The delicate size and dangling silhouette add a little more detail than a classic flat-back stud without overwhelming your piercing, making it easy to wear alone or layer within a curated ear stack.
💎 The Detail
Pretty, sparkling and full of delicate movement, this Dangling Crystal Heart Stud brings a playful jewellery-inspired finish to classic flat-back piercing jewellery.
