925 Silver Flat Disc Stud 6 mm, photographed as a single piece

Sealed for hygiene — cannot be returned once opened

This piece goes through a piercing, so it is sent in a sealed pack with a tamper-evident seal. Once that seal is broken it cannot be returned for hygiene and health reasons. Unopened, it still carries the full 14-day right to cancel. Faults and wrong items are always put right. Read the returns policy.

Positions it is sized for

Suitable during healingNoNot recorded as suitable, on the basis of its material or construction.

We do not give medical advice. Questions about piercing, healing or aftercare belong with a professional piercer or a healthcare professional. Everything on this page describes materials and construction only.

Nickel and reactions

Nickel-safe — tested to UK REACH limits (BS EN 1811).

Meeting the nickel release limit is not a promise that nobody will react. Some people react to other metals or materials — cobalt, chromium, resins and platings among them. If your ears are sensitive, wear a new piece for a short period first and see how it settles.

How we test, and what the limits do and do not mean

Weight, one piece: 0.9 g
Plating: None — solid throughout
Hallmark: Not required

No hallmark required. At 0.9 g this single piece is below the 7.78 g statutory exemption weight for silver. The purity stated is still exactly what the piece is.

In detail

The disc sits flush to the lobe rather than standing off it, so it catches less on hair and collars. Post is 0.9 mm across and 10 mm long with a butterfly clutch. At 0.9 g per piece it is still light enough for all-day wear.
