Septum piercing

Septum piercing is considered to be one of the most popular types of piercing among all people over the world. Septum piercing is a piercing which is done through the small ridge of your skin just underneath the middle of your nose between the outer and the cartilage which is separating your nostrils.
Septum piercing began its history from the Aztecs, the Incas, the Mayans and other ancient tribes. They wore a variety of jewelry, but jade & gold materials were the most popular because of their religious associations. Septum piercing is particularly prevalent among warrior cultures, especially in Irian Jaya, New Guinea and the Solomon Islands. This happens so because septum piercing probably has large jewelry through the septum which gives the face a unique appearance. And even now Cuna Indians of Panama continue this tradition by wearing thick pure gold rings in places of their septum.

Nowadays septum piercing is more common than nostril one because it can be underlined by different jeweler elements. It's probably as popular for the same reasons as nose piercing because the holes can be stretched for large pieces of jewelers to insert like stylish tusks and spikes, ball closure rings, curved barbells. Generally circular barbells, especially 14k Gold Circular Barbells are an excellent way to decorate your septum piercing. Captive bead rings and seamless rings are made of different materials to every taste: with additional elements or not, classical or modern, big or small. Septum bow is made of 316 L surgical stainless steel and is considered to be a kind of hole expander which makes your septum piercing super smart!
