JEWELLERY CARE & MATERIALS
JEWELLERY CARE & MATERIALS
A little care helps keep your jewellery looking its best. The right routine depends on the materials used in each piece, so always follow the guidance for its most delicate component.
316L surgical steel is strong and durable. Keep it clean, avoid harsh chemicals and dry it thoroughly after cleaning or exposure to moisture.
316L surgical steel is a durable choice for healed piercings. Surgical steel contains nickel, so titanium may be a better option if you have a known nickel sensitivity.
Material is only one part of choosing jewellery for a healing piercing. Gauge, length, threading, design and surface finish must also suit your anatomy. If your piercing is still healing, speak to a professional piercer before changing your jewellery.

Nipple anatomy and piercing placement vary considerably. Choose a bar that allows a comfortable fit without compressing the piercing.
How is barbell length measured?
Straight barbells: Measure the wearable bar between the two balls or attachments. Do not include the balls or decorative ends in the measurement.
Curved barbells: Measure the wearable section of the curved bar between the two attachments.
Nipple barbells: Measure the wearable straight bar between the two ends. For decorative nipple shields or specialised designs, check the product specifications because the wearable length can differ from the overall bar measurement.
Everyone’s anatomy is different. If possible, measure jewellery that already fits comfortably.
I am absolutely delighted with my purchase from Cherry Diva! The price was fantastic and the quality is even better than I expected. Everything looks beautiful and feels really good quality. I was so happy with my order that I've just ordered another pair of belly button rings! I would definitely recommend and will be shopping here again. ❤️
