Plugs


- Plugs are short, cylinder-shaped pieces worn mostly in the ears but can be used in almost any stretched piercing.

Tunnels


- Tunnels are hollow plugs, worn mostly in the ears but can be used in almost any stretched piercing. Most tunnels have flared ends to hold them in place but there are also “single flared” and “straight” tunnels. Some people choose to wear tunnels instead of plugs because they weigh less, especially at larger sizes and are “see thru”. Tunnels may be worn with other designs such as ball closure rings or other objects passed through them. Flesh Tunnels can also be referred to as spools, earlets, or eyelets and can be made from Bamboo, Horn, Bone, Wood, Shell or Stone. Click here to see all our Organic Tunnels ->

Stirrups / Earrings


- Stirrups are handmade earrings in many various designs and generally have a shorter more compact design than hanging sculptured earrings for example. Can be made from Horn, Bone, Wood, Shell or Stone. Sculptured earrings are generally larger hanging designs made in a multitude of lengths and design varieties. More complicated than stirrups the intricate handcrafted sculptures possible are truly amazing. Click here to see all our Organic Stirrups / Earrings ->
