💎 The Detail
Made from durable 316L surgical steel, this nose stud measures 20 Gauge (0.8mm) with a 6mm wearable post length. Its smooth, stone-free design is easy to coordinate and allows the polished metal finish to take centre stage.
The fine 20 Gauge post is designed for compatible, fully healed nostril piercings. Compare the measurements with an existing nose stud that fits comfortably before ordering.
Insert and remove the jewellery gently, following the angle of the L-shaped post. Avoid forcing it straight through the piercing. To help preserve the Gold PVD finish, avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaning products, and dry thoroughly before storing.
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.
