About your bow tie helix ring
This miniature bow tie has two flared sides joined by a small central knot. Rounded outer corners soften its geometric outline, while the smooth gold surface keeps the design minimal. There are no trailing ribbon ends, engraved details or gemstones.
This bow tie helix hoop brings a playful dressed-up detail to festive outfits. Pair it with simple gold jewellery for a Christmas gathering, or wear its understated bow motif throughout the year.
1. Why you’ll love it
This gold bow helix hoop combines a recognisable bow-tie motif with a simple polished ring. The approximately 3mm motif is fixed to the hoop itself, so there is no dangling charm. Its balanced shape adds a small decorative touch without extra embellishment.
Choose it for Christmas parties, special occasions or a playful everyday look. It is a lovely option if you enjoy minimalist bow jewellery and festive helix rings that can be worn beyond the season.
2. Solid gold, never plated
The bow tie and hoop are both made from genuine 14ct solid gold, rather than a gold coating over another metal. This solid gold bow tie helix ring 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 bow tie is a polished solid-gold silhouette with no gemstone or stone setting, allowing its simple shape and central knot 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 bow tie 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 bow tie 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 bow tie 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.
