Stainless Steel Cross Stud Earrings
Stainless steel · Cross stud · 6mm or 8mm · Black, gold-tone or steel · Sold as a pair
A small cross that says enough.
It sits flat against the lobe, catching a short line of light when you turn your head. Close up it reads as a clean cross; from across the room it just looks like you thought about the details. Small enough for work, clear enough to mean something.
- ✓Stainless steel, resists rust and corrosion
- ✓Two sizes: 6mm and 8mm
- ✓Black, gold-tone or natural steel finish
Full description+
The piece
Made from stainless steel, polished smooth on every edge so nothing snags on a collar or a pillow. The cross is 0.8mm thick, kept flat and simple with no stones and no texture. Finishes are applied by vacuum plating and are colorfast.
The post-and-back stud keeps the cross close to the ear instead of hanging off it. Choose natural steel for a cool gray shine, black for a matte-dark look that disappears into a dark room, or gold-tone for warmth against most skin tones. Supplied as a pair.
How to wear it
Wear a single stud with a white tee and a chain for an everyday look, or wear the pair when you want symmetry. The black finish sits well with dark outerwear and a suit; gold-tone pairs naturally with a gold chain, ring or watch. Small enough for the office, meetings and travel, with no need to take it out at the end of the day.
Choosing your size
Two sizes are offered: 6mm and 8mm. Choose 6mm if you want the cross to read as a quiet accent that barely leaves the lobe, and 8mm if you want the shape to be recognizable from a step or two away. Both use the same standard post and butterfly back, so they fit a normal healed piercing.

Questions
Will it hold up if I never take it out?
Stainless steel resists rust and corrosion, and the plated finishes as colorfast. Rinsing off sweat, chlorine and soap residue helps any finish last longer.
Is this too small for a man?
It is meant to be understated. The 8mm size is the safer pick if you want the cross clearly visible, while 6mm stays close to the lobe.
Do I get one or two?
They are supplied as a pair, so you can wear both or keep the second as a spare.
All Atlas pieces are crafted to true men's proportions. Measure twice, wear forever.
How to measure: wrap a strip of paper around the base of your finger, mark where it overlaps, then measure the length in mm. That's your inner circumference.
| Atlas size | EU | US | UK | Diameter (mm) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| S | 54 | 7 | N | 17.3 |
| M | 57 | 8 | P | 18.1 |
| L | 60 | 9 | R | 19.0 |
| XL | 63 | 10 | T | 19.8 |
| XXL | 66 | 11 | V | 20.6 |
Tip: measure at the end of the day when fingers are slightly larger. Knuckle wider than the base? Size up.
How to measure: wrap a soft tape around your wrist where you'd wear a watch. Add 1cm for a comfort fit, 2cm for a relaxed drape.
| Atlas size | Wrist (cm) | Bracelet length (cm) |
|---|---|---|
| S | 15.5–16.5 | 17.5 |
| M | 16.5–17.5 | 18.5 |
| L | 17.5–18.5 | 19.5 |
| XL | 18.5–19.5 | 20.5 |
Most men: M (16.5–17.5cm wrist) is our best-selling size.
How to wear: chain length is measured tip-to-tip. Below: how each length sits on a 6'0" frame.
| Length | Sits at | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| 45cm / 18" | Collarbone | Tucked or under a tee |
| 50cm / 20" | Just below collarbone | Most versatile · best-seller |
| 55cm / 22" | Mid-chest | Layered with a pendant |
| 60cm / 24" | Lower chest | Statement chains |
Tip: when in doubt, 50cm is the universal Atlas length — clean over a tee, sharp under a collar.
