Jewelry for insertion through the bore of a body part piercing. The jewelry comprises a crescent-shaped body (50) of a memory resilient material having terminal ends (54, 56) adapted to be inserted within a piercing. A concave depression (58) is defined on an inner side of one of the terminal ends (54). A second body such as a ball bearing (52) is insertable between the terminal ends (54, 56) and is firmly seated within the concave depression (58) to clasp the jewelry within the piercing. The ball bearing (52) has a diameter slightly greater than a distance between the terminal ends (54, 56) of the crescent shaped body (50) to first force the terminal ends (54, 56) apart and then create an inwardly directed biasing force against the ball bearing (52) when the ball bearing (52) is inserted therebetween, thus firmly holding the ball bearing (52) within the concave depression (58) and between the terminal ends (54, 56).
