{"title":"Rook Piercing","description":"\u003cp\u003eRook piercing jewellery for the fold of cartilage above the daith, on the inner ridge of the ear. A rook is pierced vertically through that ridge, so it takes a small curved barbell with both ends showing, one above the fold and one below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eRook barbells\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA curved barbell of 6mm to 8mm is the standard rook jewellery, with 8mm fitted while the piercing heals and 6mm once it has settled. Ball ends are the classic fit; a gem or opal on the top end with a plain ball underneath is the most popular way to wear it, and matching gem ends make the rook the focus of the ear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eRook hoops and clickers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA healed rook can take a small hinged clicker or seamless ring of 6mm to 8mm, which sits in the fold and frames the daith below it. Front-facing gem clickers suit the rook particularly well because the whole face of the ring shows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSizing and materials\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRook piercings are 1.2mm (16g) as standard. Jewellery is implant grade ASTM F-136 titanium or solid 14k gold. The rook is one of the slower ear piercings to heal, so keep the curved bar in until your piercer says it is ready for a ring.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2117\/8503\/collections\/0001-6701875189592602374.jpg?v=1791974922","url":"https:\/\/www.stretchitbodyjewellery.co.uk\/collections\/rook-piercing.oembed","provider":"Stretch It Body Jewellery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
