The 14k Single Gem Set Straight Barbell ball sizes are as follows:

The 14K Gold we use is; Solid 14K Nickel Free Gold. We use Palladium instead of Nickel in the Gold to help insure you of a healthy piercing. The Gold is available in either; 14K Yellow Gold or 14K White Gold, and all of our Gold is 100% Solid. No Hollow balls that crush with us.

The gems we use are Genuine Swarovski Cubic Zircons, and are not machine set, they are all Hand set, which makes it much less likely that a stone will fall out on you. Being Swarovski Zircons they will not quickly cloud over like the Austrian Crystal, and the plastics will.

Naturally we have all Genuine Stones available as well. If you would like Genuine Gemstones in this piece just email us and we will be happy to give you a price quote.

All of our 14k Gold pieces are Internally Threaded for your comfort, with the exception of the 18 gauge which is externally threaded.
