Gauge refers to the thickness of the post that inserts into the nostril. When choosing a gauge size it's best to measure one that you already have that fits nicely, with a caliper. If you do not have one, you can use a ruler in millimeters.
The thickest gauge is 18G. This would be your choice if you have recently had your nose pierced or wear that gauge normally. 20G is thinner than 18G and is the standard, most popular size. 22G is the thinnest size post and perfect for those who normally wear silver nose jewelry from retail stores.

14G - 1.6mm
16G - 1.2mm
18G - 1.0mm
20G - 0.8mm
22G - 0.6mm

Nose Stud (straight style) - Choose this style if you would like to bend the item yourself or have someone do it for you. These are not meant to wear straight.

Nose Bone - This style comes with a small ball on the end to keep the jewelry from falling out.

Nose Screw - The nose screw has a u shaped bend or curve that will flow with the natural curve inside the nose. Our right nostril screws will bend to the left with the design facing towards you and our left nostril screws will bend to the right.

Open hoops have a opening within the ring and a small ball on the end to keep the jewelry secure.

Seamless hoops offer a cut within the circle that is bent only to insert the jewelry, then bent back for the nose ring to be complete circle within the nose piercing.

Segment rings have a small section of the jewelry that is removable for insertions.

Clicker rings offer a similar removable segment but the segment remains attached to the ring for insertion.

Septum Rings are designed to wear in the middle section of the nose between the two nostrils. They also come in several hoop designs including segment rings, seamless rings and our most popular, the septum clickers.

The diameter of a nose hoop is the distance from inside edge to inside edge across the widest portion of a hoop. If your piercing is higher up, or if your nose is on the large side, a nose ring with a larger diameter would suit you better than one with a small diameter.
If you don't have a hoop to measure that fits you just right, you can measure your piercing with a ruler in millimeters. Stand in front of the mirror and place the ruler on your nose to measure the distance between the piercing hole and the edge of the nostril. This will be the smallest inner diameter that you can wear and it will fit snugly. For a looser fit, add 1mm-2mm to your measurement.

1/4" - 6mm
9/32" - 7mm
5/16" - 8mm
3/8" - 10mm

The wearable post length for nose jewelry is the length of the post that will be inside your piercing.
Screws and LBends will be measured just under the stone where the post begins, to where the post bends. The nose bone is measured from just under the stone to just before the ball on its end.

Nose Screws - Standard length 6.5mm

Diamonds are the result of carbon exposed to tremendous heat and pressure deep within the earth. This process can result in a variety of internal characteristics called ‘inclusions’. Evaluating diamond clarity involves determining the number, size, relief, nature, and position of these characteristics, as well as how they affect the overall appearance of the stone.
VVS1-VVS2 – Very, Very Slightly Included: Inclusions so slight they are difficult for a skilled grader to see under 10x magnification.
VS1-VS2 – Very Slightly Included: Inclusions are observed with effort under 10x magnification, but can be characterized as minor.
SI – Slightly Included: Inclusions are noticeable under 10x magnification but are rarely seen with the naked eye.

When choosing a precious metal it is a good idea to match it to your preferred jewelry style.

The Karat of the gold refers to its purity. The higher the Karat the closer to pure gold the jewelry piece will be. Higher purity also results in a softer metal more pliable metal. We offer 24K, 18K and 14K white and yellow gold.

Rose Gold has become increasingly popular with its subtle and delicate rose or pinkish color.

Platinum is a durable white metal that is more dense than gold. It is also highly recommend for those that have experienced allergies with other metals as it is generally considered safe from allergic reaction.
