Helix Earrings
The helix is one of the most versatile spots on the ear, and the right jewelry makes all the difference. Explore our solid 14k gold helix earrings, hoops, and studs — handcrafted, nickel-free, and made to order.
Solid 14K Gold Helix Earrings, Hoops & Studs
The helix runs along the outer upper rim of the ear, giving you room for a single accent or a whole curated row. Our helix earrings, hoops, and studs are handcrafted in solid 14k gold — never plated — and every piece is nickel-free and hypoallergenic, so it's gentle on sensitive cartilage. Helix piercings are usually done at 16g or 18g, and because we make each piece to order, you can dial in the exact gauge, diameter, and length for a comfortable fit in a healed piercing. Choose from minimalist gold hoops and huggies, flat-back studs that sit flush against the ear, and gemstone or diamond styles for a little extra sparkle. A helix takes both hoops and studs beautifully — smaller diameters read dainty, larger ones make more of a statement. Every design is internally threaded or threadless for a smooth, snag-free surface, and hand-polished in our California studio. Whether you're starting a curated ear or adding one perfect piece, you're choosing fine jewelry built to last.

Frequently Asked Questions About Helix Earrings
What jewelry is best for a helix piercing?
Both hoops and flat-back studs work well in a healed helix. Hoops (seamless rings, clickers, huggies) give a bold look; flat-back studs sit flush and are great for stacking.
Hoop, stud, or flat-back for a helix?
All three fit. Flat-backs are the most comfortable for sleeping and stacking; hoops make more of a statement. It's down to your style.
What gauge and size do I need for a helix?
Most helix piercings are 16g or 18g, with hoop diameters of 6–8mm common. Measure jewelry you already wear, or check oursize guide.
Helix vs. cartilage earring — what's the difference?
"Cartilage earring" is the umbrella term for any upper-ear piercing; a helix earring is specifically for the outer upper rim. All helix earrings are cartilage earrings.
Can I wear these in a healed helix?
Yes — these are ideal for healed piercings. For a brand-new helix, wear the flat-back stud your piercer recommends until it's fully healed.
Why solid 14k gold?
Solid gold is biocompatible, nickel-free, and won't tarnish or irritate sensitive cartilage — unlike plated or low-grade metals.
