The details that matter
Discover Luma: a solid gold septum ring with hand-hammered detail around the entire outer edge and a smooth, polished front and inner surface.
1. Why you’ll love it
A fine curve of gold at the centre of your look. Let it frame your face on its own, or wear it beside your favourite nostril ring for an easy mix of textures.
The entire outer circumference is hammered by hand with tiny, irregular transverse marks: short strokes across the outer edge that catch the light in little flashes. The front-facing side and inner surface remain smooth and polished.
The width, depth, angle and spacing of these small marks vary naturally with each hammer stroke. No two rings have exactly the same pattern; yours will share the design pictured, with details of its own.
Each Luma ring is handmade to order, with closely aligned ends for an almost seamless look. Sold individually, for fully healed septum piercings.
2. Material & finish
Crafted from 14ct solid gold, never plated or gold-filled. Hand hammering follows the whole outer circumference, while the front-facing side and inner surface are left smooth and polished.
- Available in yellow, white or rose gold
- Small, irregular transverse hammer marks across the full outer edge
- A smooth front-facing side and polished inner surface
- Handmade variations in the width, depth and spacing of each short mark
- Photographs show the design; the exact hammer pattern varies from ring to ring
- Made to order in your chosen size and gauge, for fully healed septum piercings
3. Choosing your size
The inner diameter shapes how Luma sits beneath your nose. Compare the options with a septum hoop that already fits you:
- 8mm: a smaller diameter for a closer look, where your piercing position allows
- 9mm: a little extra room while keeping the look understated
- 10mm: a larger curve with more of the hoop on show
- 11–12mm: a more spacious, prominent look
The same diameter can sit differently depending on your anatomy and piercing position. Choose the same gauge as your current well-fitting jewellery: 16G is 1.2mm and 18G is 1.0mm.
Half sizes from 5.5mm to 10.5mm are also available. 16G is unavailable below 8mm. Check the options above for your preferred combination, and message us if you would like help comparing sizes.
4. Wearing your seamless hoop
Open the hoop by gently twisting the ends sideways in opposite directions. Do not pull the ends directly apart, as this can distort its shape.
Guide one end through your healed piercing, then twist the ends back into alignment. If you are unsure about changing or fitting your jewellery, ask a professional piercer to help.
5. A little something to unwrap
Your Luma ring arrives with:
- One handmade Luma 14ct solid gold septum ring, in your chosen size, gauge and gold colour
- A STEPOY jewellery box
- A STEPOY gift bag
- A thank-you card
A little something for yourself, or a thoughtful gift for someone whose piercing size you know.
