These earrings are absolutely lovely. I chose the smaller size with flat backs so I can wear them all the time. No irritation from that little bar in the back that pricks your ear. Now I just want more 🫣

A very pretty drop, though a bit on the small side.

A delicate, dainty segment clicker with a ball pattern in yellow gold—I really like it, and it goes with everything.

I’ve already emailed four times to say that I received the wrong piercing. Specifically, I didn’t receive an 8mm post (bar), but an 8mm piercing. So it doesn’t fit. (See my photo.) Every time, I don’t get a response until a few days later: “Oh, we’re sorry you’re dissatisfied; click here to pay for the return yourself.” Well, no—it’s your fault that my piercing doesn’t fit. It’s a real shame; I was so happy about this beautiful new website. But if, after four times, you still aren’t reading my emails and are just responding with a robotic, generic reply… that’s it for me. Never again with TOV.

A helix piercing sits on the upper rim of the ear, the spot that started the curated-ear look, so the jewellery should be exactly what it claims to be. Every helix piece at TOV Essentials is made of solid 14k or 18k gold, in yellow or white gold, stamped with its official 585 or 750 hallmark and backed by a digital Certificate of Authenticity, so you always know exactly what you own. We design every piece in-house and make it directly with skilled European ateliers, without the middlemen most jewellery passes through, so more of what you pay goes into the gold instead of markup.
Solid gold is gold all the way through, not a thin layer over a cheaper base metal the way gold-plated piercings are made, so it does not peel, fade or mark your skin. This matters most for a piercing: our solid gold contains no nickel or base metal, so it stays stable and skin-friendly even with long-term wear, which is exactly why professional piercers recommend solid gold for healed piercings. You pay more than for plated piercings because you are buying real gold, and less than at the traditional luxury houses because we put the value into the gold and the craft instead of the markup.
Helix pieces work best with a flat-back closure that sits comfortably against the cartilage of the upper ear. Most come in 14k, a little harder and ideal for a piece you rarely take out; for a warmer, richer colour, see our 18k gold piercings. Always wait until a new piercing is fully healed before changing your jewellery. Pair it with a conch or lobe piece for a complete curation.
Every piece is handcrafted in solid gold, hallmarked and delivered with its Certificate of Authenticity, and diamond pieces also list the carat weight and the 4 Cs, in packaging designed to be given, so it always feels like a gift, whether it is for someone else or for yourself. It is the same real gold the big names use, made without their markup. For us a piece of gold is something you choose as you build your own life, a quiet reminder to embody your ambitions.
