Gold and Iolite Nose Stud
This 2mm iolite nose stud is a mysterious mixture of purple and blue. My mind can never quite decide which one it leans toward when I'm setting the stone in one of these. Is it more purple? Is it more blue? No matter what it is, it's perfectly luscious, and a treat to wear. Your mystery awaits...
Have it created your in your choice of a gold filled stem or a solid gold stem. The claw setting is gold filled.

How To Choose Your Nose Stud Gauge and End Style
What is the nose jewelry gauge?
Gauge is the thickness of the part that goes through your piercing
20G is about the thickness of a regular earring post
18G is thicker than 20G
22G is thinner than 18G and 20G
24G is thinner yet
If you’re not sure, your own piercer, or a local piercer should be able to tell you your gauge
What are the different nose stud ends?
Screw ends point toward septum (see photos)
Screw end for left is your left nostril
Screw end for right is your right nostril
Bone ends are not threaded - they are a solid ball
Shaft lengths are 6.5mm
L ends are a straight shaft of 6.5’’ with a 5mm ‘tail’
Fishtail is a straight shaft of 17mm
If you have specialized requests for either gauge or end styles – for example 16G nose studs, or longer or shorter shaft lengths for nose studs, please contact me to discuss possible options.
