Gold, a Noble and Timeless Material
If there's one material to embrace in 2022, it's gold! You're used to wearing it in your rings, bracelets, necklaces... Well, now it's time to bring it to your ear piercings too! Gold is timeless and often given as a gift to celebrate life's most important moments. It's the most popular material in jewelry making, thanks to its luxurious look and undeniable beauty.
If you love elegant jewelry, it's time to invest in gold piercings and get something more than skin-deep beauty. In our online shop, we offer premium-quality gold jewelry.
Our solid 14K or 18K gold piercing jewelry will elevate your collection. Whether it's for an ear, face, or body piercing, gold's timeless beauty brings class and elegance to your style. This jewelry is built to last and will stay with you forever, as long as you take care of it.
On top of being timeless, gold doesn't tarnish, isn't magnetic, and you can shower with it on without any issues! If you're still unsure about which material to choose for your piercings, check out our article "Which Material Should You Choose for Your Piercing Jewelry."

The Nose Piercing, a Revival
You already know it, of course... The nose piercing! The nose piercing is one of the most common piercings, right after the ear and navel piercings. It can be worn in different ways, notably at the septum or on the side, through the nostril. This piece completes your look and adds character to your style. The unmissable Noholita has been wearing a septum for a few years now. The influencer wears it discreetly with a light, delicate piece. You could go for our titanium Grace piece. If you're after something even more luxurious, we recommend the Albireo or Apollo. These two solid gold gems are set with crystals, dazzling enough to turn heads everywhere!
But did you know that fashion week runways are really what drive new trends? It's through these runway shows that these accessories become genuine trends. Top fashion houses have embraced piercings in their recent collections, with the septum as a particular favorite.
Playing on a 90s and 2000s revival, while carrying this trend forward into the seasons ahead. So get ready for a big comeback of the nose piercing in 2022!
Charms for Your Earrings
A charm is a small piece of jewelry you can add to your earring to make your style endlessly your own! They let you tell your own story. A memory of a meeting, a trip, your zodiac sign, a nickname, or even a dream... Charms come in countless meanings. Major jewelry and fashion houses offer earrings with beautiful charms.
At Obsidian, we're preparing a little surprise for you soon... As we write this article, our charms are in production and will be available later in 2022!
Piercing Constellations
From necklaces to rings, layering and stacking are the trends of the moment.
And in 2022, it's the ear piercings' turn. Balancing, adjusting, and arranging your piercings just right. The composition you choose for your ear piercing jewelry largely depends on your anatomy. If you'd like to know more, we cover all the possible ear piercings on our blog. From the lobe to the helix, including the famous daith piercing, often nicknamed the "migraine piercing," there's a wide range of options to choose from!
So what exactly is a piercing constellation? It's a series of piercings placed relatively close together, forming an original composition. You've probably seen this style trending on social media!
Constellation-style piercings work really well because they can fill more space, since some people have larger ear lobes.
If your ear lobe is on the smaller side, we recommend extending the piercing composition up toward the top of your ear to avoid it looking too crowded.
A combination of styles and textures you can change endlessly!
Gaelle Garcia Diaz, the well-known influencer, has been wearing this style for a few months now! A result that's discreet, yet striking.
But don't forget to prioritize quality over quantity.
2022 is shaping up to be a big year for trends! Be original, be bold, and be sure to follow our updates in the months ahead. Plenty of new jewelry is coming to our shop, naturally tied to the trends we've spotted for 2022.
