Solid 14K white gold all the way through, which is the difference between jewelry that lasts and jewelry that wears back to base metal. A plated hoop looks identical on day one and shows its underlayer at the ball end within a season of insertion and removal.

Solid Gold, Not Plated Gold

Plating is a coating measured in microns. The point it fails first is the point that gets handled most, which on a nose hoop is the ball end you grip every time it goes in. There is no coating here to fail, because the whole hoop is 14K white gold, so the surface you see in a year is the same metal you bought.

What 20 Gauge Means For Your Piercing

Gauge is thickness, and it runs backwards: the higher the number, the thinner the wire. 20 gauge is 0.8mm, which is the standard nostril size across most of the United States. A hoop thicker than your piercing will not pass through it, and one thinner leaves the hole loose, so this is the number to match rather than the diameter.

Two Inner Diameters

The smaller diameter sits tight against the nostril; the larger one stands away from it. Neither is more correct, and the choice is about the look you want rather than about fit.

Why White Gold Reads Cooler Than Silver

White gold is yellow gold alloyed with white metals, so it carries a faint warmth that sterling silver does not. Next to a silver stud it looks slightly softer. It also will not tarnish, which silver does, so it stays the same tone without polishing.

Where Solid Gold Is The Wrong Spend

If you change jewelry weekly and lose pieces, a plated hoop at a fraction of the price costs less to replace. Solid gold earns its price on a piece you wear daily for years. This is also jewelry for a healed piercing; a fresh one should keep whatever your piercer fitted until it settles.

White Gold Nose Hoop Questions

Will it discolor the skin around the piercing? Solid gold does not oxidize the way plated base metal does once the coating wears through.

Which inner diameter should I pick? The 5/16 inch hugs the nostril, the 3/8 inch stands off it. Both fit the same 20 gauge hole.

Can it go in a new piercing? No. Wear what your piercer fitted until the piercing has settled, then change to this.
