The concept of body piercing is not new to mankind; nose rings are one of the most stylish and fashionable accessory worn by women since time immemorial. Metallic antique nose rings in gold, silver were the most favored among the fashion conscious people.



Style and Design

In the ancient times, nose rings were designed elaborately as big rings embellished with pearls and other stones and attached with a chain which could be hooked in the hair to take the weight off from nose; with the change in time, the bulky rings have been replaced with magnetic nose rings because of the ease of wearability. Women need not get their nose pierced for wearing this ultimately stylish jewellery piece. Antique-finish nose rings in cheaper materials are being manufactured to cater to a larger segment. Small and feminine nose studs are in vogue.



Market for Antique Nose Rings

Antique finish nose rings are being manufactured and exported in bulk to a large number of European and Asian countries owing to an increase in the demand, especially with teenagers.
