Cartilage and helix earrings require a different kind of construction than lobe earrings. The fit has to be precise, the post gauge correct, and the piece light enough to wear comfortably in a higher piercing for extended periods. Every cartilage and helix earring in this collection is crafted by hand in our Athens workshop from solid 14k and 10k gold, with conflict-free diamonds where set. From small huggie earrings that sit flush against the helix to ear cuffs and cartilage hoop earrings, each piece is built to the same standard the Tasatzis family has held for over 70 years in Athens. Nothing plated, nothing that will irritate a healing piercing. Solid gold is naturally hypoallergenic, which matters most in piercings that are still settling.
