Q1: Are these plugs measured in GA or MM? A: All sizes are listed in millimeters (mm) following international standards. mm is NOT GA — please check the conversion chart below before ordering. 📏 Quick mm ↔ Gauge/Inch Reference 5mm ≈ 4ga 6mm ≈ 2ga 8mm = 0ga 10mm = 00ga 11mm ≈ 7/16" 12mm ≈ 1/2" 14mm ≈ 9/16" 16mm = 5/8" 19mm = 3/4" 22mm = 7/8" 25mm = 1" (Best method: measure your current plug's saddle with digital calipers, or ask your piercer to confirm in mm.)

Q2: What does the listed size refer to? A: The listed size refers to the Tunnel Outer Diameter (Saddle Size). Because these are double flared, the flare edges are approx. 1–2mm larger. Q3: How long is the wearable area? A: ✦ Wearable area: ~8mm (commonly recommended by professional piercers) ✦ Overall tunnel length: ~10mm, balanced for comfort and stability. Q4: Will the size be exact? A: Each piece starts as a 3D-printed resin base, then goes through several hand-finishing steps. Minor tolerance may occur: ±0.1mm~0.4mm. We carefully control accuracy and consistency at every stage.

Custom and personalized orders

Q1: Can I request a custom size or structure? A: Absolutely. Please message us before ordering if you need: ✦ Solid saddle (recommended under 10mm) ✦ Extended saddle length ✦ Deeper flares ✦ Larger sizes (25mm+ / up to 50mm, resin only) Custom pieces are made specifically for you. Q2: Are custom orders returnable? A: Due to their personalized nature, custom orders are not eligible for returns or exchanges, unless a craftsmanship issue occurs. If unsure, please contact us before ordering — we're happy to help. Q3: Is this safe for sensitive skin? A: If you have metal sensitivities, please use caution. For first-time wear or sensitive skin, we recommend short wear sessions to adapt.

❓ 1. Are these machine-made? → Not exactly — and we won't pretend otherwise. Each piece starts as a 3D-printed resin base, personally modeled and printed by our designer, then hand-finished: sanded, aged, colored, and polished entirely by hand. The 3D printing gives us precision; the hand-finishing gives every piece its character. Slight variations (±0.1~±0.4mm) are part of that process, not a flaw. ❓ 2. What does "5mm" mean? Is it the flare? → No. Listed size = saddle diameter (the part that sits in your piercing). Flare is 1–2mm larger for security. ❓ 3. Can I get 30mm / 40mm / 50mm? → Yes — in resin only. Metal becomes too heavy beyond 25mm. Message us for a custom quote!

❓ 4. Is the "bone-white" resin real bone? → No. It's a non-toxic, cured resin, hand-aged in layers — base coat, crevice shading, then hand-buffed highlights — to create a natural-looking aged, bone-like finish. Ethical and lightweight, with no two pieces aging exactly alike. ❓ 5. How do I know my size? → Measure your current plug's saddle (flat middle part) with digital calipers, or check our mm/Ga chart above. Your piercer can also confirm in mm. ❓ 6. My resin piece feels uncomfortable — can I get it fixed? → Message us first — for most resin fit issues we can remake and resend without needing the original piece shipped back.

❓ 7. The main photo shows more detail than I expected on a small size — why? → Our main photo uses a 23mm sample to fully show the carving. On smaller sizes (5mm–12mm), fine detail is naturally simplified by scale — we enlarge the relief surface for visibility, but very fine carving is limited by the physical size itself. Need a specific detail size (e.g. "skull face 15mm wide")? Message us before ordering and we'll see what's possible. ❓ 8. Is the tunnel length in the photo what I'll actually get? → The tunnel length shown in the main photo is a reference sample only. Your actual tunnel length depends on the size you choose — please check the Size Standards section in our shop's About page for exact measurements.

I originally gave this item a bad review due to a print error. However, this store went above and beyond to make sure that I still received a wearable pair. They look awesome in person. Thanks so much! Highly recommended!

I ordered the wrong size, they can’t accept body jewelry back for sanitary reasons but they offered me 50% off if I wanted to reorder the correct size. Would absolutely order from them again.

Jenn Feb 20, 2026

Response from NOER

Thanks for sharing your experience, Jenn! Navigating sizes can be tricky, so I’m thrilled we could support you with a reorder discount. It means a lot to know you’d shop with us again despite the initial hiccup. Your support for our small business is truly appreciated!

The seller was very communicative from the start and sent me update photos of my plugs completely unprompted which was nice. In addition to sending me my set quickly, they arrived in this fancy little felt lined box which the millennial in me tells me I should hold on to incase i find another porpoise for it. But the coolest thing was they send me an additional plug! I lose plugs all the time so having a backup is really awesome. Highly recommend this seller, would 100% buy from them again.

Response from NOER

Thank you so much for such a stellar and witty review! It truly made our day. We are thrilled to hear that the "unprompted" update photos and the fancy felt-lined box hit the mark—we definitely support your millennial instinct to find another purpose for that box! 🐬 And about that extra plug: It was our absolute pleasure to include it as a little gift. 🎁 For fellow shoppers: This surprise is exclusive to resin-series orders, gifted randomly as a token of appreciation. We know how easily plugs vanish — consider it your “safety net from the universe.” Thank you for choosing our Gothic Skull Tunnels. Stay awesome, — FatalistSong❤️
