The Lucy Studs
The classic ball stud, in real gold. The Lucy comes in 2 mm ball stud or a 3 mm screw back stud in solid 14k gold: a small, clean dot of shine that goes with everything and is made to last.
Wear it on its own, or pair it with a strand of chain in a peekaboo or drape. It also works as the quiet base of a stack alongside huggies and hoops.

Quality and materials
This piece is solid 14k gold, not plated or filled. The gold runs through the whole piece, which is why it holds its color and value, and why it is a good fit for everyday wear.
How to style it
Keep it simple as a single pair in the lobe, or add a second stud in the next piercing. A 2 mm ball sits small and neat, so it layers well with larger pieces.
