Real 14k Gold Belly Button Rings

The belly ring you never take out. Solid 14k gold, yellow or white, all the way through. CZ and gemstone solitaires, hearts and halos, hinged clicker hoops and dangles that move when you do, all on the navel-standard 14G, 3/8 inch bar. Not gold-tone, not plated. Some are made to order in our own gold department in Buffalo, New York.

 

Gold Belly Ring Fit & Care Guide

Every gold belly ring here is 14G, the navel standard, on a 3/8 inch (10mm) bar that fits most navels. A 7/16 inch bar sits a little lower. Match the numbers on the piece you wear now, and never downsize a 14G piercing to a thinner bar. The skinny belly ring is the classic mistake, because thin jewelry migrates and cuts. Navels are the slowest common piercing to heal, 6 to 9 months or more, so the starter your piercer placed stays in until you're cleared. After that, gold is the one that stays.

Yellow or white, both are 14k. Yellow is nickel-free and the warm classic against skin. White reads like platinum and makes a CZ or gemstone look bigger and brighter. White-gold alloys vary by piece, so a navel that reacts to metal chooses yellow, or asks about the specific piece first.

A solitaire sits flat under a waistband and is the everyday pick. Halos and hearts are the statement. Dangles are for healed navels and nights out. The hinged clicker hoop has no top to lose. Gold is soft, so thread the top on by hand, never with pliers, and a soft cloth brings the shine back. Buy-one-get-two promotions don't apply to 14k gold. The price is the price.

FAQ

Yes. Every belly ring on this page is solid 14k gold, yellow or white, the same metal all the way through, and the title says so. Gold-tone PVD and gold-plated belly rings are honest products with their own pages, and they never mix in here. If the title doesn't say 14k, it isn't on this page.

14G, with a 3/8 inch (10mm) bar that fits most navels. That's the navel standard and what every gold belly ring on this page is. A 7/16 inch bar sits a little lower. Match the gauge you wear now and never downsize a 14G piercing to a thinner bar, because thin jewelry migrates and cuts. If your navel was pierced at 16G, ask us before ordering. Both numbers are on every product page.

A red, cranky navel is usually a nickel reaction, and solid yellow 14k gold has none. White-gold alloys vary by piece, so nickel-sensitive skin should choose yellow or ask about the specific piece. Solid nickel-free gold is accepted for initial jewelry, but navels are the slowest common piercing to heal, 6 to 9 months or more, so the starter your piercer placed stays in until you're cleared. Then gold is the piece you never take out.

Both are 14k. Yellow is the warm classic against skin and is nickel-free. White reads like platinum and makes a CZ or gemstone solitaire look bigger and brighter, so it's the pick when the stone is the point. If you're nickel-sensitive, yellow is the safe default.

On a healed navel, yes, with one rule. The bar through the piercing is still the standard 14G, so the fit is the same as a plain barbell. Dangles catch on waistbands and towels, so save them for healed piercings and wear a solitaire while anything is still settling. In solid gold a dangle is also lighter than it looks.

A belly ring carries more gold than a nose stud, and you pay for that metal by weight, plus stones set by hand in gold rather than glued. Some pieces are made to order in our own gold department in Buffalo, New York, and ship a little slower. Gold is priced as gold. Buy-one-get-two promotions don't apply to 14k, and the price you see is the price. Thread the top on by hand, never with pliers, and a soft cloth brings the shine back.
