A helix piercing is placed on the upper rim of the ear. Especially in this area, jewelry that fits well and is comfortable to wear is important. In our collection, you will find helix piercings made of solid 585 white gold. This means real gold jewelry with 58.5% gold content, which is very suitable for everyday wear.
Helix jewelry should look delicate, be comfortable to wear, and aesthetically match what you like to wear. That's exactly what we focus on at Lisa Eleni. Therefore, you will find a selection of simple studs, clickers, and hoops made of 585 white gold, as well as models with stone or pearl settings. If you would like to learn more about pain, healing, or care, you can find all the important basics on our page about Helix Piercing.
What kind of jewelry suits a white gold helix piercing?
Not every beautiful piece of jewelry is suitable for a helix piercing. Our earrings are particularly practical for everyday wear as they are rather simple and, thanks to the screw-back closure, won't get lost. The flat back also makes them very comfortable to wear, even when sleeping.
If you want to give your helix piercing a bit more expression, our clickers or small hoops are often a good choice. The most important thing is that the jewelry fits well, is the right size for your ear, and creates the look you desire. Some prefer to wear their helix simply in white gold. Others like models with cubic zirconia, pearls, or moonstone to add more detail to the ear.
Why 585 white gold is a good choice for a helix piercing
A helix piercing usually remains in the ear permanently, as the piercing channel can otherwise close up. Therefore, a material that not only looks beautiful initially but also offers reliable properties for everyday use is worthwhile. 585 white gold consists of 58.5% gold in combination with other metals such as silver and copper. This creates a high-quality alloy that is well-suited for delicate real gold jewelry.
White gold itself typically has a slightly yellowish hue. Therefore, our white gold jewelry is rhodium-plated, as the rhodium coating provides the typical bright white gold look. At the same time, rhodium is a very hard material that withstands everyday wear and tear well. This ensures the surface remains beautiful for a long time and usually does not flake off with ear piercings. This is a great advantage, especially for helix jewelry, which many customers wear daily.
Skin compatibility also plays an important role in ear piercings. Our models are nickel-free, hypoallergenic, waterproof, and do not tarnish. This is particularly practical if you don't want to constantly remove your helix piercing.
If you are looking for more models for other positions, you can find our entire selection of white gold ear piercings on Ear Piercings White Gold.
Size orientation for helix jewelry
What size fits well depends on your ear shape, the piercing's position, and your desired look.
Helix Rings: What size fits?
- 6 mm inner diametersit very close to the ear and appear particularly delicate, but are too small in many cases.
- 8 mm inner diameterare often a good, balanced size for a classic helix look and are the most commonly worn.
- 10 mm inner diameterare slightly more visible and create more accent on the ear rim.
- 12 mm inner diameterappear more prominent and are often too large.
Helix Studs: What length is appropriate?
- 6 mm stud lengthis usually the right size if the cartilage at the helix is not too thick.
- 8 mm stud lengthis the right choice if the cartilage is a bit thicker and 6 mm is not sufficient.
It's best to measure your ear before ordering or refer to the sizes of your existing jewelry. This will help you find the right size for you.
Cubic Zirconia, Pearls, Moonstone, or simple White Gold
With helix piercings, it's often the small details that matter. A simple white gold model is the right choice if you prefer a clean and timeless look. If you desire a bit more sparkle, models with cubic zirconia are a beautiful addition.
Pearls or moonstone can also look very beautiful with a helix if you are looking for a slightly more special look. This way, you can decide whether you want to wear your helix piercing simply or highlight it a bit more with a stone setting or pearl.
