This niobium hoop features a silver octopus captive bead design that measures approximately 12.6mm (wide) x 9.2mm (tall). It works well for septum, conch, helix and daith piercings.
- The octopus bead design will take up approximately 4mm of the inner diameter when worn as septum jewelry or as a daith earring.
- Each bead is carefully antiqued and then given a hand-brushed finish to highlight the blackened details.
- Completely nickel-free! The hoop is made out of type-2 commercially pure niobium, and the bead is made out of Argentium silver.
- All of my hoops have completely smooth ends for comfortable and safe insertion.
Sold individually for healed piercings only.

Returns + Exchanges:
Body jewelry sales are final. Read my full shop policies here: Returns & Shipping
Please ask all size related questions prior to ordering, I'm always happy to help! Send me a message here: Email Me. I respond to emails within 24 hours Mon-Fri, weekends excluded.
Fabrication Time + Shipping:
I make everything one at a time by myself. Your jewelry will take me approximately 4 weeks to make before it is shipped. Business days are Monday-Friday, weekends and holidays excluded (business days are not consecutive calendar days).
Shipping within the US costs a flat $3.50 for orders under $36 (orders over $36 ship for free). Shipping costs for locations outside of the US vary from $9-$17. All orders are shipped via USPS First Class with a tracking number.
Cancellations + Size Changes:
Cancellations and requests to change the size must be sent within 48 hours of the sale. Otherwise, I will have already started working on the order. I am a single maker, there is no team behind Metal Lotus.
I may still be able to change the size after 48 hours depending on how far I've gotten on the order. However, I reserve the right to refuse order cancellations, or charge a 15% restocking fee, when I have already spent money purchasing supplies for an order and spent time working on it.
Please don't request a cancellation the week that your order will be shipping as the jewelry has already been made custom to the size you picked out by this time.
