This septum pincher is made from black glass. The gauge size refers to the sides of the notch, and the notch will be smaller than the gauge by about 0.5mm. 14g does not have a notch.Gorilla Glass measures the gauge by the mm, not the inch. So for larger gauges: 2g will be 6mm, 0g will be 8mm, 00g will be 9mm, 7/16" will be 11mm, and 1/2" will be 12mm.

Beautiful, but definitely go up a size or 2
This is such a beautifully made piece of jewelry. I love black glass and I dislike pinchers with o-rings (there's not a very large selection of notched pinchers out there surprisingly) so this caught my eye right away. Unfortunately, it's sooo small - appearance and fit-wise. I even went up a size, knowing that the wearing surface of the notch is typically a little smaller than the gauge states. The first time I blew my nose, it flew right out, lol. So now I have to remove it beforehand so I don't lose it. For the same reason, I need to remove it before I wash my face as well. I constantly check to make sure it's still there as it rotates often because of the loose fit, and I've woken up a few times to it hanging on for dear life.I'm a 10g and ordered an 8 but I probably should have gone with a 6, possibly even a 4g. I checked it with calipers and the wearing surface is between a 10 and 8 and the flares are a just smidge larger than an 8. Also, my piercing is placed relatively high, so you can just barely see a little something hanging down when you look closely. I wish it was more noticeable because it really is a gorgeous piece that I would wear all the time if didn't always worry about it falling out. Maybe I'll give it another shot down the line and try a 6 or 4.

Good size. Nice piece.
I’ve been at 10g for years and I see a lot of people saying that you should get a size or two bigger. I got both an 8g and a 6g. The 8 fits perfectly fine but the 6 would def be a bit of a stretch for me. I love the size of it and it is very comfortable. I plan on going to a 4g with these pinchers.

It looks great, I just wish someone would make a ring ...
The sizing of the notch is smaller than the 6g I ordered, so that means the ring will slip out. If you go up a gauge then the flare is too large. It looks great, I just wish someone would make a ring like this that is true to size at the saddle.

Comfortable and low key
The Gorilla Glass septum retainer is awesome and so so comfortable. It is very low profile compared to some other pinchers and does not come down very far down below the bottom of your nostrils. because of the groove at the top, it does stay in place in the septum, I was skeptical at first when I first got one. But since got another when I sized up. I love mine and it is comfortable and pretty low key.

Quality is amazing! I slid some jewelry o rings on it ...
Quality is amazing! I slid some jewelry o rings on it just to keep it in place because the size I bought is too small to have a notch and being glass it is a little slippery.

It is absolutely perfect for the price
The diameter is very small, which is just what I wanted. The notch at the top is barely there. And yes the picture makes it look blue, but it is black. It is absolutely perfect for the price. I had an issue on the post offices behalf, but they fixed the problem for me anyways.
