What's great about this nose ring is the simplicity. You insert it from the inside to create a seamless look, and the little bud acts as a stopper on the inside of your nostril. This is a great choice if you have to take your nose ring out a lot because the opening allows you to insert and remove easily, without having to bend the wire of the ring, which will make your nose ring last longer.

This awesome nose hoop gives you great value and long wear-ability in one piece of nose jewelry.

I craft these from 14 karat white gold, and a custom ring can be chosen by selecting your gauge (thickness) and interior diameter.

How to pick a great nose ring:
1. Pick your Nose Ring Size
• measure from your piercing hole to the bottom of your nostril or septum
• consider the thickness of your nostril or septum – if it’s on the thick side, add in 1mm. If it’s really thick, add 2mm or more
• I measure in millimeters on the INSIDE of the ring – from the inside of one edge to the inside of the opposite edge
• See the conversion chart below for millimeters to inches
• I use 8mm = ‘fits most’ size, 6mm = really small, and 12mm = really large

2. Pick your Nose Ring Gauge
• gauge means how thick the wire is
• 22G is thinner & daintier, 20G is standard, and 18G is thicker
• 20G is about the thickness of a regular earring post or hook
• if you don’t know, you can compare to an earring, or ask your piercer

3. Pick your Nose Ring Material
• are you a silver nose ring person? A gold nose ring person? Solid gold, or gold filled? Maybe niobium is just right for you.
• create different looks with different metals – the choice is all yours.
• all of my nose rings are nickel free
