" Hi! My name is Rick Wyckoff. You can check out our website at avatartat2.com. I’m here on behalf of expertvillage.com talking about body piercing jewelry. In our display case here, we’ve got a variety of ear jewelry and jewelry that can be placed in other piercings if it’s appropriate. Down here, this is all silicone jewelry. It’s flexible and good for expanding a piercing. Down here we’ve got some stainless steel tribal captive bead rings and all kinds of different organic ear spools. These ones are actually glass, I have imprinted with something that makes them look metallic. Here some other little tribal ear jewelry. We’ve got some stainless steel talons here, got serrations on them. Here some little organic bone talons, and over here we’ve got buffalo horn. ear jewelry, some jade and these are glass with little gold skulls on them. And some other serrated stainless steel talons. Some elaborately carved mammoth ivory. Over on this side, we’ve got all of our stainless steel jewelry. This is a large gauge captive bead ring. It has a spring loaded ball in there. Normally, you’d flex the ring open to get the bead in and out, but on something this large it really doesn’t flex so you’ve got the spring loaded bead in the middle. These are circular barbells; they’ve got one threaded end on them on the ball. Both of the balls come off they’ve got a little threaded end on it. That’s how you take those ones in and out. "
