Ball Helix Single Stud Earring in 10k Gold

- Helix – your helix is the outermost fold of cartilage that curves from above your lobe, right up and around to the side of your face.
- Conch – your conch is the innermost part of your ear cartilage.
- Rook – the top inner ridge of your ear, just inside the helix.
- Tragus – the piece of cartilage directly in front of the opening to your ear canal, against the side of your face.
- Daith – the innermost ‘fold’ of ear cartilage, just above the tragus.
- Forward Helix – the area where your ear helix curves in and around to meet the side of your face.

10k Gold
At Medley Jewellery, our 10k gold jewellery is conflict free and designed for durability and style. ‘Conflict free’ means that we have a traceable chain of custody that ensures our certified metals are ethically sourced and do not contribute to or are extracted from zones of conflict. All our 10k gold pieces are stamped with ‘10k’ to mark their authenticity. 10k gold refers to gold that has a purity of 10 karats. Pure gold is a relatively soft and malleable metal, so it's often mixed with other metals to create alloys that are more durable and suitable for jewellery. 10k gold means that the item is composed of 41.7% pure gold and 58.3% alloyed metals, making it more durable and resistant for daily wear. At Medley we offer 10k gold in white, yellow and rose hues.
