About your bear helix ring
This miniature bear head has two rounded ears and a smooth, gently curved face. Its polished surface has no engraved eyes or nose and no gemstones, keeping the outline clear and minimal.
This teddy bear helix hoop brings a playful animal detail to an ear stack of plain gold studs and hoops. Choose it for yourself, or as a thoughtful gift for a bear lover with a healed helix piercing.
1. Why you’ll love it
This bear cartilage hoop combines a tiny bear-face motif with a simple polished gold ring. The approximately 3mm motif is fixed to the hoop itself, so there is no dangling charm. Its rounded ears and soft outline add character while keeping the design small and uncomplicated.
Wear it alone in your helix piercing, or pair it with plain gold pieces elsewhere on your ear. It is a lovely choice for anyone who enjoys cute teddy bear jewellery, tiny animal motifs and minimal ear stacks.
2. Solid gold, never plated
The bear motif and hoop are both made from genuine 14ct solid gold, rather than a gold coating over another metal. This solid gold bear helix hoop is nickel-free and handmade to order for a fully healed helix piercing.
- Yellow gold for a warm, sunny glow
- White gold for a cool, clean finish
- Rose gold for a soft hint of pink
The bear head is a polished solid-gold silhouette with no gemstone or stone setting, allowing its rounded ears and face to remain the main details.
3. Choose your fit
Start with how you like a helix hoop to sit around the outer rim of your ear. A smaller inner diameter will usually sit closer, while a larger one gives a little more room. Your piercing position and ear anatomy affect the fit, so the same size can sit differently from person to person.
You can choose a 5, 6 or 7mm inner diameter. If you already have a helix ring that fits well, measure across its inside edge as a starting point. These small sizes will not suit every helix piercing; your piercer can check the space you need.
For the wire thickness, choose the same gauge as the jewellery you already wear:
- 18G = 1.0mm
- 20G = 0.8mm
The bear measures approximately 3mm and does not change the stated inner diameter. If you are unsure about your gauge, your piercer can check it for you.
4. How to wear it
This bear helix ring is made for a fully healed piercing in the upper outer cartilage of your ear.
When you are ready to put it in, gently twist the two ends sideways in opposite directions. Pulling them straight apart can change the shape of the circle, so hold the hoop itself rather than the bear motif.
Once one end is through your piercing, gently twist the ends back into alignment. If the angle is difficult to reach or you would prefer help, a professional piercer can fit it for you.
