The Blackline Star Nipple Shield is a nice addition to your nipple jewelry. There are not many Black Nipple Shields available. These are made from our standard Medical Grade Titanium with a Permenant PVD coating added to give them thier awesome Black Color. The straight barbell is not included but we do carry those as well in a choice of colors and materials. Just see the "straight barbell" section for those if you need them as well.
