The Bea Studs

A small, polished sphere of 14K yellow gold on each ear. The simplest stud there is, and the one you'll never need to take out. Just 3 mm across, with a bright, mirror-smooth finish.

The Metal Truth
Material: 14K yellow gold
Finish: High polish, no plating
Best for: Everyday wear, second and third piercings, a first pair of real gold earrings, an easy gift
Wear note: At 3 mm, they sit close and quiet on the lobe, small enough to wear with headphones, hats, and everything else.
Care: Take them off before swimming, since chlorine is hard on gold alloys. Put them on after perfume, lotion, and hairspray. Because they're hollow, they can dent if dropped and stepped on or pressed, so store them together in a small pouch, which also keeps the push backs from going missing. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth, or clean gently with mild soapy water and dry completely.

About 14K Gold
14K gold is 58.3% pure gold, blended with other metals for strength, and it's the most popular karat for fine jewelry because it balances rich color with everyday durability. These earrings are 14K gold, not plated, filled, or vermeil, so there's no surface layer to wear through.

Why We Chose It
Every ear needs one pair of studs that disappears into your routine. We chose these for their scale: 3 mm is small enough to forget you're wearing them and polished enough that you're glad you are. A gold sphere catches light from every angle, so they look finished from any side.

Styling Notes
Wear them alone for the quietest version of polished, or use them as the small stud in a stack. They sit well in a second piercing beside the Grace Studs in yellow gold, or above the Sloane Huggies in gold vermeil.

Gift Confidence
A first pair of real gold earrings at any age, and an easy yes for anyone who wears studs daily. No sizing, no style to guess at. Add gift packaging at checkout for a ready-to-give box and a personal note.
