The most common guages we stock are 1.6mm and 1.2mm. Details of
the sizes are in the description of the body jewellery item. Eg"
1.6 x 16 x 5 means 1.6mm guage, 16mm long and a 5mm ball. All our
dimensions are in mm.
None of our body jewellery is made from Base Metal or "Fashion"
metal. These metals are normally brass, pewter, copper and numerous
others which are then plated with another metal such as Rhodium.
These "Fashion" metals do not offer long lasting hypoallergenic
properties and can break down easily and cause infection.
The only metals we use in our body jewellery are surgical steel,
sterling silver or Titanium. These are clearly marked in our product
descriptions.
For safe body jewellery always ask what the metal
is before you purchase.
Butterfly Silver do not provide a piercing service. We do however,
provide a large range of body jewellery once you have been pierced.
Always use a professional and reputable piercer for best results.
