💎 The Detail
Simple, colourful and easy to coordinate, this crystal nose stud is a versatile choice for adding a small focal point to your nostril piercing. The polished silver-toned post allows the selected crystal colour to remain the centre of attention.
The 20 Gauge post has a 6mm wearable length and an L-shaped bend designed specifically for compatible nostril piercings. The 2.5mm crystal offers a delicate finish without disappearing against the skin.
Made from 316L surgical steel for healed piercings. Surgical steel contains nickel, so ASTM F136 titanium may be a better choice if you have a known nickel sensitivity. Clean gently with mild soap and water, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth.
Sold individually.

How is nose jewellery measured?
Nose studs: Gauge refers to the thickness of the post. Post length refers to the wearable section of the jewellery.
Nostril hoops: Gauge refers to the thickness of the ring, while diameter is measured across the inside of the hoop.
Everyone’s anatomy is different. If possible, measure jewellery that already fits you comfortably.
