Body piercing jewelry

Body piercing jewelry is jewelry manufactured specifically for use in body piercing.

Materials used for production have grown from traditional gold and silver to most widespread surgical steel as well as titanium, glass, several kinds of plastic, wood, silicone, ivory, tusk and others.
