Helix Earrings

One of the preferred jewellery options for an edgy stack, a set of helix earrings adds bold lines that are wearable for any scenario. Creating a look that blends bold expressionism with fluid movement, helix earrings uniquely develop your ear architecture. They’re a modern jewellery style with pop-punk origins, redefined for contemporary wardrobes.  

With their sensitive piercing holes, the Camile & Stone NZ helix earring collection features pieces designed for daily wear. Our hypoallergenic helix earrings are tarnish-resistant, meaning you can wear them in your cartilage without concern for their quality. We blend style with safety to create a range that completes your daily look, with pieces you’ll reach for again and again. 

What are helix earrings?

Each piercing within your ear is intended for a particular type of accessory, and helix earrings are designed for piercings found on the upper cartilage rim of the ear. There are several types of helix earrings, each providing a fluid silhouette that helps frame your face. Whether you opt for a set with a soft glow or a high-polish finish, each type of helix piercing can enhance your outfit. 

Standard helix piercings are placed on the outer upper cartilage of the ear rim, whilst forward helix earrings are found in the cartilage curl at the front of the ear. A vertical helix is a piercing that goes directly through the cartilage fold, creating a sculptural shape within your ear. When paired with a piece featuring a graceful drop, like our coveted huggie earring range, they complement each other by adding soft movement to your bold earring look. 

Why is it essential to use high-quality helix earrings?

An irritated piercing is one of the most uncomfortable experiences, and using high-quality helix earrings can help reduce the likelihood of it happening. Each hypoallergenic helix earring within our collection is designed for daily wear, and we’ve used high-quality materials with the most delicate skin in mind. This makes our helix earring collection suitable for sensitive ears and helps prevent infection. 

The durable materials we utilise in our collection reflect our intentional design philosophy, creating pieces for long-term wear. Our waterproof collection blends tarnish-resistant practicality with expressive styling, allowing you to create a layered jewellery stack to draw the eye. Build a range that can sharpen even the most minimal outfits you wear daily. 

What factors should I consider when choosing helix earrings?

Whether you’re looking for a stack designed to be worn daily or for a set of diamond helix earrings to complement statement pieces, you should consider the style, quality, and size of your helix earrings. Minimalist pieces create a low-profile design for your ear architecture, whilst pieces that complement statement jewellery can work well in both casual and formal looks. 

For evening attire, pair silver or gold helix earrings with a standout piece like our Tennis Sapphire Bracelet to effortlessly finish your outfit. The adjustable clasp of the bracelet creates a customised fit, ensuring it’s comfortable to wear and blends style with lightweight durability. Pair one along with a set of silver helix earrings to create a modern look that softly glows in the light. 

What kind of earrings are used in helix piercings?

Because of the sensitivity of helix piercings, it’s essential to use helix earrings when styling them. These are designed with durable materials, creating a reliable fit for this piercing that blends style, comfort, and wearability together. 

The hypoallergenic helix earrings within the Camile & Stone NZ collection blend expressive styling with comfort. Our high-quality pieces feature secure closures, and their tarnish-free designs means you can wear them daily. 

How to unscrew tight helix earrings balls?

Stubborn helix earring balls are uncomfortable to deal with, and using a set of latex gloves can help you to turn the ball counter-clockwise whilst holding the base steady. For any stubborn helix earring balls, we recommend using small pliers or clamps for extra leverage. 

Seeking assistance from a professional piercer is recommended to avoid damaging your jewellery or causing a tear within your piercing. They can help you safely remove your earrings, ensuring you’re ready to create a new daily look.
