Match the gauge, not the look

Gauge is the number that decides whether a piece goes through at all, and it should match what your piercer put in. If you are not sure of yours, ask them rather than guessing from a photograph.

About this piece

We machine these 16G hoops from 316L surgical steel and finish them in a polished gold tone. The 6mm inner diameter sits close to the tissue. There are no loose beads or separate segments to drop, so each ring swings open on its hinge and snaps shut by hand. Match the gauge to your existing piercing.

Details

Six millimetre diameter

This pack includes five rings with a 6mm inner diameter, also described as one quarter inch. The 16G wire measures 1.2mm thick. It works where you need a compact, snug ring that stays out of the way.

Hinged clicker mechanism

The segment swings on a built-in pin. It opens with fingers alone and snaps into the grooved end with a clear click. If the tension shifts over time, a slight squeeze aligns the joint again.

Polished surgical steel

We make these from 316L surgical steel, noted in our specs as hypoallergenic. The surface is buffed smooth so the post glides through cured channels without dragging on edges, then holds its gold-tone color.

Five ring pack

You receive five identical hoops in a single velvet pouch. Having several identical pieces makes it easy to match multiple placements across the ear or nose, or to keep an exact spare at hand.
