9K Gold Runder gebogener Stab mit Innengewinde und Zirkonia

• Solid 9K gold construction: 37.5% pure gold alloyed for lasting durability and genuine warm-toned lustre; not gold-plated or gold-filled
• Internally threaded design: smooth post surface passes through the piercing channel with no exposed threads, reducing irritation risk in healed piercings
• Round CZ jewelled end: 3mm high-quality cubic zirconia set to a round brilliant cut; rated 8.5 on the Mohs hardness scale for scratch and knock resistance
• Standard 16G gauge (1.2mm): fits most healed eyebrow piercings and rook placements pierced at standard gauge
• Hypoallergenic material: 9K gold is suitable for healed piercings in most individuals; not recommended for new or unhealed piercings
• Curved bar profile: contoured shape follows the natural anatomy of eyebrow and rook placements for a flush, comfortable fit during everyday wear

1. Confirm your piercing is fully healed: 9K gold jewellery is designed for healed piercings only. Eyebrow piercings typically take 6–9 months to heal; rook piercings may take 6–12 months. If in doubt, consult your piercer before changing jewellery.
2. Verify your gauge: this bar is 16G (1.2mm). Confirm your current jewellery is also 16G before insertion. Forcing an incorrect gauge risks discomfort and channel damage.
3. Wash your hands thoroughly: always handle piercing jewellery with clean hands. Do not touch the post or stone end unnecessarily before insertion.
4. Remove your current jewellery carefully: unscrew the existing end piece by rotating anti-clockwise. Keep hold of both pieces to avoid loss.
5. Insert the curved bar: guide the smooth post gently through the piercing channel following the natural curve of the bar. Do not force the bar if resistance is felt.
6. Attach the jewelled CZ end: thread the internally threaded end piece clockwise onto the post until finger-tight. Do not over-tighten.
7. Check fit and comfort: the bar should sit comfortably without pinching or excessive movement. If the bar length feels too short or too long, consult a piercer about sizing alternatives.

• Clean regularly with saline solution spray or apply sterile saline (0.9% sodium chloride) to the jewellery while in the piercing, once daily or as needed. This removes surface debris without damaging the gold or stone.
• Avoid harsh chemicals; do not expose the bar to bleach, chlorine, alcohol-based cleaners, or abrasive cleaning agents. These can dull the gold surface and affect the CZ stone clarity over time.
• Remove before prolonged water exposure: While 9ct gold is water-resistant, extended exposure to chlorinated or salt water is not recommended for maintaining the finish and stone setting long-term.
• Store separately when not wearing; keep the bar in a clean, dry jewellery pouch or box, away from other pieces that could scratch the gold surface. Avoid storing in humid environments such as bathrooms.
• Polish gently if needed; use a soft, lint-free cloth to restore surface shine. Do not use jewellery polishing dips or ultrasonic cleaners without first confirming they are safe for CZ stones.
• Check the threaded end periodically; ensure the jewelled end remains securely threaded. If it feels loose, re-tighten finger-tight. Do not wear if the end has become detached or is missing.

• Eyebrow piercing upgrade: ideal for replacing a starter steel or titanium piece in a fully healed eyebrow piercing. The curved bar profile and 8mm length suit standard eyebrow anatomy; the 9K gold and CZ stone provide a significant aesthetic upgrade from basic surgical steel.
• Rook piercing jewellery: the curved bar shape is anatomically suited to rook placements. The 16G gauge and 8mm length align with common rook piercing specifications. Confirm your rook was pierced at 16G before fitting.
• Everyday wear: the low-profile curved bar sits flush and is unlikely to snag on hair, clothing, or headwear during regular daily activity. Appropriate for work, social occasions, and casual wear in a fully healed piercing.
• Gift purchase: suitable as a gift for piercing enthusiasts who have a healed eyebrow or rook piercing at 16G. The real gold and CZ combination offers clear material value distinct from fashion jewellery alternatives. If gifting, confirm the recipient's gauge and placement before purchasing.
• Jewellery rotation: for collectors rotating pieces across healed piercings, this curved bar pairs cleanly with other gold body jewellery styles across the ear and facial piercing range.

Bar Length: This product has an 8mm bar length, which suits most standard eyebrow and rook placements. Bar length requirements vary depending on individual anatomy and any residual swelling. If you are unsure of your correct bar length, a professional piercer can measure and advise.

Stone End Size: The CZ jewelled end is 3mm in diameter, a compact size that complements the bar without overpowering the placement.

Note: Always confirm your piercing's gauge with a professional piercer before changing jewellery. Gauge mismatch can cause discomfort and risk channel integrity.

• Is 9K gold safe for piercings?

  9K gold is safe for healed piercings in most individuals. It contains 37.5% pure gold alloyed with other metals for durability. Because it contains alloy metals, it is not recommended for new or unhealed piercings, where implant-grade titanium is the preferred material. For fully healed piercings, 9K gold is a widely worn, hypoallergenic option, though individuals with specific metal sensitivities should consult a professional piercer before use.

• What does internally threaded mean, and why does it matter?

  On an internally threaded bar, the screw threads are recessed inside the bar post. The exterior of the post is smooth. When you insert or remove the jewellery, only the smooth surface contacts your piercing channel, not exposed threads. On externally threaded jewellery, the threads are on the post itself and pass directly through the piercing during insertion. This can cause micro-abrasion in the channel, particularly in healed piercings with established tissue. Internal threading is the construction standard recommended by professional piercers for long-term wear in healed piercings.

• Will this fit my eyebrow piercing?

  This bar is 16G (1.2mm) in gauge and 8mm in bar length, the standard specification for most healed eyebrow piercings. If your eyebrow piercing was done at 16G and is fully healed, this bar is designed to fit. If you are unsure of your gauge or whether your piercing is fully healed, consult a professional piercer before changing your jewellery.

• Can this bar be used as a rook piercing bar?

  Yes. This curved bar is tagged for rook jewellery use. The 16G gauge and 8mm bar length are compatible with many standard rook piercings. Rook anatomy varies between individuals, so confirm your gauge and preferred bar length with your piercer before purchasing for a rook placement.

• Is this real gold or gold-plated?

  This is a solid 9K gold bar, not gold-plated, not gold-filled, and not gold-coloured steel. 9K gold contains 37.5% pure gold (375 parts per thousand) alloyed with other metals for structural durability. Gold plating is a surface coating applied to a base metal; it wears away over time. Solid 9K gold does not have a coating to wear off.

• Is cubic zirconia safe for use in body jewellery?

  High-quality cubic zirconia as used in this bar is a hard (8.5 Mohs), non-porous, smooth-surfaced stone. Its non-porous nature means it does not absorb moisture or harbour bacteria in the way some natural or organic stones can. CZ is widely used in professional body jewellery by reputable manufacturers. This product is designed for healed piercings, it is not recommended as an initial piercing jewellery stone.
