20 Gold Plated Earring Studs – (14mm)

Description

Gold Plated Earring Studs

Each stud in this pack measures 14mm in total length with an 8mm flat pad that includes a precise 1.2mm hole for hanging components. The gold plated earring studs come with butterfly clutches and offer a warm metallic base that doesn’t overwhelm delicate beadwork or gemstone drops. The extended post length accommodates thicker earlobes comfortably while the dangle hole sits flush against the front of the ear, creating a clean attachment point for everything from single crystal drops to multi-strand chain cascades.

• Pack contains 20 individual earring posts with matching butterfly backs
• Total length: 14mm post with 8mm flat pad width
• Dangle hole diameter: 1.2mm, suitable for 20-22 gauge wire or fine chain
• Gold plated finish over metal core
• Flat front pad allows secure gluing of cabochons or resin domes
• Post thickness fits standard ear piercing gauges

The 1.2mm hole accepts sterling silver jump rings for attaching pre-made metal charms, or thread 22-gauge wire through to create wrapped bead loops that hang without twisting. These 14mm earring posts work particularly well for asymmetric designs where one earring features a longer drop than its pair—the extended post length balances the visual weight. For resin artists, the 8mm flat pad provides enough surface area to mount small dried flowers or glitter inclusions under a clear dome, transforming the stud into a miniature display case. Wire wrappers can create spiral dangles that connect through the hole, allowing the wrapped element to swing freely without obscuring the gold base.

The plated finish photographs with a soft yellow tone rather than brassy orange, sitting comfortably in the mid-range gold spectrum. Under natural daylight the surface reads as classic yellow gold, while indoor LED lighting brings out slightly warmer undertones. This warmth pairs naturally with wooden beads in honey or caramel tones, and contrasts elegantly against matte black onyx or deep garnet drops without competing for attention.
