This silver bat-winged cat skull captive bead design measures approximately 12.5mm (wide) x 5mm (tall). 

• The coil on the back of the design is approximately 4mm-5mm long.
• Choose between a horizontal bead or a vertical bead. Vertical beads work well for nostril and tragus piercings. Horizontal beads work well for conch, helix, daith and septum piercings. Make sure you consider the size of the design and if it will fit in your desired location!
• The bat-winged cat skull bead design will take up approximately 2mm of the inner diameter when worn as septum jewelry. 
• Each bead is carefully antiqued and then given a hand-brushed finish to highlight the blackened details.
• Completely nickel-free! My captive beads are made out of Argentium silver.  
• I make the captive beads specific to the gauge that you choose. If the gauge you wear is not listed, my captive beads will not be compatible with your hoop. 
• IMPORTANT: You may need to adjust your hoop opening to accommodate the length of the coils as you switch from bead to bead. I do my best to make the coils a consistent length, but there will always be some variation due to the handcrafted nature of the product.
