Collection: Gold Rook Jewellery

Gold rook jewellery at Camden Body Jewellery is made from ASTM F136 implant-grade titanium with an 18K Gold PVD finish, combining the safety of medical-grade titanium with a warm gold aesthetic for the rook placement. All pieces are 16G (1.2mm), the standard gauge for rook piercings. The 18K Gold PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) coating bonds directly to the titanium surface in a vacuum chamber, producing a finish that is significantly more durable than gold plating.

The collection includes gold curved barbells and gold clicker hoops sized for the rook placement. Curved barbells follow the natural curve of the antihelix fold and are the most practical starting piece for the rook. Gold rook clicker hoops offer a circular look once healed and are available in diameters suited to the compact upper inner ear anatomy. CZ-set ends on curved barbells add a gemstone detail at the rook without adding bulk.

Gold rook jewellery adds a warm metallic accent to the upper inner ear fold, complementing gold pieces at other placements such as the daith, helix, or tragus. A fully gold ear stack using 18K Gold PVD titanium across multiple placements creates a cohesive, luxurious look with the safety and durability of implant-grade titanium throughout. The rook is a placement that rewards close attention, and gold here rewards those who look.

Rook piercings take 6 to 12 months to heal. Keep the area clean with sterile saline spray twice daily, ensure both sides of the jewellery are cleaned, and avoid over-ear headphone bands pressing on the antihelix during healing. The 18K Gold PVD finish is durable for everyday wear and should be cleaned with warm water only.

Frequently Asked Questions

What gauge is gold rook jewellery?

Rook piercings are 16G (1.2mm). All gold rook jewellery in this collection is 16G. Confirm your piercing gauge before purchasing replacement jewellery.

What is 18K Gold PVD?

PVD stands for Physical Vapour Deposition. The 18K gold coating is applied to the implant-grade titanium base in a vacuum chamber, bonding the gold at a molecular level. The result is a coating that is significantly more durable than gold plating and will not flake or peel. The base remains ASTM F136 implant-grade titanium throughout.

What style of jewellery is best for a rook piercing?

Curved barbells are the recommended choice for fresh rook piercings because they follow the curve of the antihelix fold. Gold rook clicker hoops can be fitted once the piercing is healed. Pieces sized specifically for the rook placement will fit more comfortably than general cartilage jewellery.

How long does a rook piercing take to heal?

Rook piercings typically take 6 to 12 months to fully heal. The dense antihelix cartilage has limited blood supply, which extends healing. Consistent saline aftercare throughout the full healing period is important.

Can I build a fully gold ear stack using CBJ pieces?

Yes. Camden Body Jewellery offers 18K Gold PVD titanium pieces across helix, tragus, daith, conch, septum, rook, and other placements. Because all pieces share the same implant-grade titanium base with the same PVD process, they are consistent in colour tone and material safety across an entire multi-piercing ear arrangement.
