Swiss precision vernier calipers are highly accurate, durable (constructed of high performance polymer) and are ideal for measuring any item of body piercing jewellery.

Used by professional piercers and enthusiasts alike, all over the world, this incredibly accurate measuring tool will help you identify all of the measurements on any item of body piercing jewellery you care to think of.

We would like to thank Andrew for reviewing this product, highlighting the advantages of the Vernier Calipers:

“I just received today my Vernier Callipers and all I can say is I’m so glad I did. The callipers are very well made, light and easy to grip (just be careful your hand don’t get in the way of the mechanism when turning the measuring wheel).

If you’re going to be buying a lot of jewellery, this device is crucial because you can measure up your existing piercings with pinpoint accuracy, and if you’re wanting to change the sizes, you’ll need this to see if your proposed changes will fit. For example, I wanted some bigger balls on a bar, and I’m glad I got this device as I’d have chosen a size that would’ve been way too big.

This would also prove invaluable if you have a large collection of jewellery and need to keep it in some sort of order. Given my various piercings are in different sizes for different parts of the body, I need to keep up with the size of what’s where, and this does the job perfectly.

I like the fact there is a huge dial where you can read the measurement so there’s no doubt and no holding it up to the light to read. Also it’s an essential if you need to get bigger rings as it measures the diameter of those too.

All in all, if you’re having metal pierced on your body and you want to change it, invest in a set of these as it will save you money in the long run by making sure you buy the appropriate sized jewellery.

A note about order processing and delivery: fantastic! The order was placed Christmas Eve and arrived a couple of days later. BJS run a very slick operation and I will be definitely be buying my accurately measured jewellery from them!”

This new range of double-flared flesh plugs is available in an assortment of red, blue, purple and pink colours, ideal for everyday wear.

Double flared jewellery is designed for fully healed stretches that have remained the same size for at least 6-8 weeks. The easiest way to fit double flared eyelets is to push one side at a time, like you would a ‘button’. If your ear is not comfortable or you are experiencing pain, please wait a further week or two before trying to fit the new jewellery.

We suggest to do the fitting after a hot shower when the skin is soft and flexible, and to use some lubricant (such as savlon or vitamin-e oil).

Introducing our stunningly unique new range of Exhibition Blackline (PVD Coated G23 Surgical Titanium) flesh plugs. Each one is crafted with a beautifully hand-carved Cherry Amber adornment.

 This striking new range of flesh plugs illustrates a variety of designs that reflect the ancient art of the Native American Aztec tribes and the Renaissance period. Ancient Aztec art was primarily a form of communication and religious expression during the 13th Century, and these beautifully crafted designs are still admired today within their ancient artifacts. THe Renaissance (French for “rebirth”) reflects the great European advancement of artistic, social, scientific, and political values during the 14th-16th centuries.

 Some of the designs you can find within our selection include the Amber Aztec Sun, Amber Renaissance Face, Amber Spiral Dance, Amber Sundial and Amber Sunspire. A dazzling ‘Confetti Mosaic’ assortment is also available in different hues of Mocha, Abalone and Midnight. These Confetti flesh plugs reflect the sunlight and gleam with majesty and grace.

Blackline comprises of a PVD coating on G23 Surgical Titanium. PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) has become widely used to deposit wear resistant, thin film coatings onto medical devices (including heart pacemakers, surgical instruments, and orthopaedic implants). The main value in PVD technology rests in the ability to modify the surface properties of a device without changing the underlying material’s properties and biochemical functionality.

Check out our funky new range of ear Industrial and Scaffold Piercing barbells in 316L Surgical Steel.

The scaffold Piercing is made up of two or more separate rim (or cartilage) piercings that are joined by one barbell.
This procedure can be performed as separate piercings with separate jewellery and allowed to heal individually; but can also be fitted with one barbell depending on personal preference. The piercer should carefully mark and plan the piercing so the gauge is suitable for all the tissue it travels though. This piercing is most commonly performed as a standard 1.6mm gauge.

These scaffold barbells come in two sizes only, some designs in 36mm length, and some in 39mm length. Please ensure that your piercing will fit the available length (just measure the distance between your two piercings). You can also customize these barbells by choosing any of our 1.6mm Threaded Accessories, for a really funky and unique finish to your piercings.

  You can view our Piercing Gallery for photographs of Scaffold piercings, as well as many other body modifications!
