The Mysterium Lion Mane Mutation Ring has a Surgical Steel core and a Permanent PVD Coating on Top to give the ring its color. The Bead also has a enamel White Star on it. These rings are truly a conversational piece, because the design on the rings is very extraordinary. The thicknesses of the Ring are wider in parts so you may need to order them one gauge smaller in order to place them in your piercings the way you want.
