Introducing RoseGemShop’s New Line of Fine Body Jewelry Featuring Oregon Sunstone
RoseGemShop Expands Into Fine Body Jewelry with Oregon Sunstone and More
At RoseGemShop, we’ve always believed that jewelry should be personal, meaningful, and just a little bit magical. What started as a passion project making ear gauges for stretched lobes has grown into a full-fledged gemstone jewelry shop—and now, we’re expanding into even more exciting territory: handcrafted body jewelry made with fine metals and vibrant natural gemstones.
Whether you’re new to the shop or have been following since the beginning, we’re thrilled to share the story behind our newest creations—septum rings, flatback threaded ends, and soon, belly rings, cartilage hoops, daith rings, and more.
It Started With Gauges… and a Problem to Solve
RoseGemShop began with a simple idea: make stretched-ear jewelry that looks great, feels light, and doesn’t stretch your ears out more than you want. Our founder, Brian Rose, knows this challenge firsthand. As someone who wears gauges, Brian had trouble finding stylish pieces in bold colors that weren’t too heavy or clunky for everyday wear. Most glass and stone plugs, while beautiful, weighed too much to comfortably wear all day—especially without risking upsizing.
The solution? A creative blend of Oregon Sunstone (mined by Brian himself!) crushed into a food-grade, ultra-light epoxy resin. This unique formula allowed for bold colors, real gemstones, and daily wearability—all while staying lightweight and comfortable.
That idea struck a chord. Our signature resin gauges, filled with shimmering Oregon Sunstone in hues ranging from golden peach to vibrant pink and red, quickly became our bestsellers. And they still are today. They’re comfortable, eye-catching, and totally unique—just like the people who wear them.
Why Body Jewelry Was the Next Step
Living and working in a college town, one thing became very clear: body jewelry is everywhere. Septum rings, nostril hoops, flatback studs, daith and helix piercings—these aren’t niche anymore; they’re everyday adornments, often worn by people looking for something a little more personal than mass-produced stainless steel jewelry.
That’s when Brian got inspired to create something that combined the comfort and style of body jewelry with the same artisanal touch and local stones that RoseGemShop is known for.
We started experimenting with small-batch designs using solid 14k gold—no plating, no filler—and setting them with hand-selected Oregon Sunstones, black spinel, and rhodolite garnets. The results have been stunning.
Septum Rings, Threaded Ends, and More to Come
The first pieces in our body jewelry collection are already turning heads. We’ve released a small selection of:
-
Septum rings in 14k yellow, rose, and white gold, featuring round or marquise-cut Oregon Sunstone for a fiery, high-end look.
-
- See the simple but elegant Daphne septum ring with three round stones. Oregon Sunstone and black spinel never looked so good together
- See the Parvati septum ring with alternating black spinel and Oregon Sunstone
- See the Freyja septum ring with it’s fierce marquis stones
- See the stunning Artemis septum ring with Oregon Sunstone and rhodolite garnet
-
Flatback threaded ends, perfect for cartilage piercings, conch, tragus, or labret. These are minimalist yet sparkly, with flush or prong -set gemstones. Both 2mm and 3mm options, Oregon Sunstone or Rhodoloite Garnet.
- See our flatbacks in Oregon Sunstone or Rhodolite Garnet
Each piece is made with piercing-safe materials—either solid 14k gold or high-polish titanium for posts and backs. And we never use glue-on stones; everything is properly bezel or prong set by hand, ensuring both safety and long-lasting beauty.
But we’re just getting started.
Coming Soon: Belly Rings, Nostril Hoops, Daith and Helix Jewelry
We’re currently developing new designs for:
-
Belly rings, featuring Oregon Sunstone cabochons and custom-cut stones in secure, wearable styles.
-
Nostril hoops and seamless rings that hug just right and shimmer with gemstones in unexpected colors.
-
Daith, rook, and helix rings with elegant curves, milgrain details, and even more stone options.
And while Oregon Sunstone will always be our first love, we’re also planning to branch out into stones like ethically sourced opal, Montana sapphire, amethyst, spinel, and other vibrant natural beauties. If you’ve got a favorite stone or a custom request, don’t hesitate to reach out—we love working with you to create exactly what you’re dreaming of.
