Gold Belly Button Ring

The gold belly button ring gives the navel classic a warm glow: a smooth curved barbell ("banana") with a prong-set crystal at the top and a larger round cubic zirconia solitaire at the bottom, finished in a rich gold tone over a hypoallergenic titanium core. Prefer a silver tone? See the titanium belly button ring.

This is a PVD gold finish over G23 titanium: the warm colour with a nickel-free core, without the price of solid gold — and without the cheap plated brass that wears and can expose nickel. We never call it solid gold. More in our guide to choosing a material.

Double crystal, prong-set

Both stones are prong-set cubic zirconia held on fine claws, so light gets under the stone and it reads bright and clean — a small crystal above the navel, a round solitaire below.

Choosing your gauge and size

This belly button ring is 14G (1.6 mm), the standard navel gauge, with a curved bar in 6, 8, 10 or 12 mm and two gem sets (4 + 6 mm or 5 + 8 mm). 10 mm fits most navels; pick shorter for a shallow navel, longer for a deeper one. Match the gauge your piercer set — our gauge and size guide explains it simply.
