Body Jewelry Materials
At Fresh Trends, we take pride in offering fine piercing jewelry that meets the highest standards of safety and quality. Each piece is made from hypoallergenic, nickel-free precious metals — materials proven to be safe for all piercings and gentle on sensitive skin.
Our Gold & Platinum Jewelry
Our gold piercing jewelry is handmade in California by our team of in-house professional jewelers. Each piece is carefully crafted to your specifications using only the finest, nickel-free precious metals — including solid 14k gold, 18k gold, 950 platinum, and hand-selected genuine gemstones. Every material we use is hypoallergenic, safe for all piercings, and laboratory tested to meet the highest industry standards. This ensures our jewelry not only looks luxurious but is also gentle on sensitive skin and suitable for fresh piercings.
For full details on the composition and purity of our precious metals, please see our Certificate of Assay.
Piercing Jewelry Size
Choosing the right body jewelry size can be challenging if you’re unsure of your exact measurements. Visit our Piercing Jewelry Size Guide for a complete walkthrough on how to find the perfect fit for your piercing.
Still not sure? Our Piercing Advisor service offers personalized guidance to help you choose the ideal jewelry for your anatomy and style.
You can also consult your local professional piercer, who can determine your size from your existing jewelry or past records — most reputable piercers are always happy to assist.
Body Jewelry Care
The most important step before inserting any type of fine jewelry is to clean it thoroughly. Proper care of your body piercing jewelry helps prevent infection and preserves its brilliance over time. Regular cleaning and maintenance are essential to keep your jewelry in pristine condition. For professional care and deep cleaning, explore our FreshTrends Jewelry Refresh Service, designed to restore your fine body jewelry to its original shine.
Internally Threaded vs. Externally Threaded
Internally threaded body jewelry refers to jewelry where the ball threads into the barbell. Since it is much less likely to cause damage and irritation, especially at the time of piercing, internally threaded jewelry is considered superior to externally threaded jewelry. It is usually slightly more expensive than externally threaded jewelry due to the extra machining and labor involved. All of our jewelry is internally threaded unless otherwise noted.
We also have a beautiful collection of Threadless Piercing Jewelry worth checking out.
