Collection: Rose Gold Septum Rings

Rose gold septum rings are made from ASTM F136 implant-grade titanium coated in rose gold via physical vapour deposition. The septum sits in the soft tissue just inside the nostrils, and jewellery worn there is exposed to regular contact and movement, making a durable, biocompatible metal the recommended choice.

Septum piercings are typically pierced at 16G (1.2mm) or 14G (1.6mm). Common septum jewellery styles include circular barbells (horseshoes), clicker rings, and seamless rings. Rose gold is a particularly popular colour for septum piercings due to its visible placement and the warm tone of the finish.

PVD-coated titanium septum rings are nickel-free, making them suitable for wearers who experience reactions to standard gold alloys or surgical steel. Septum piercings heal over approximately 6 to 8 weeks for the initial stage, with full healing taking 6 months or more.

Frequently Asked Questions

What gauge are septum piercings?
Septum piercings are most commonly pierced at 16G (1.2mm), though 14G (1.6mm) is also used. Standard sizing refers to the thickness of the barbell or ring wire, not the diameter.

Can I flip a rose gold septum ring up?
Circular barbells (horseshoe barbells) can be rotated upward inside the nose for concealment. Clicker rings and seamless rings are not designed to be flipped and are better suited to healed piercings where constant concealment is not required.

Is PVD rose gold the same as solid rose gold?
No. PVD rose gold is a coating applied to a base metal (in this case, ASTM F136 titanium) via a vacuum deposition process. Solid rose gold is an alloy of gold, copper, and sometimes silver. PVD titanium is generally preferred for body jewellery due to its superior biocompatibility and lower nickel content.

How long does a septum piercing take to heal?
The initial healing period for a septum piercing is typically 6 to 8 weeks, but full tissue healing can take 6 months or longer. Individual healing times vary depending on aftercare, anatomy, and overall health.
