'''Body piercing jewellery''' is [[jewellery]] manufactured specifically for use in [[body piercing]].
Originally, hardly any other jewellery than circular [[earring]]s were used in modern Western body piercing. As the body piercing became more of a [[fashion]], a vast amount of specially crafted jewellery became available. Materials used for production have grown from traditional [[gold]] and [[silver]] to widespread use of [[surgical steel]] as well as [[titanium]], [[glass]], several kinds of [[plastic]], [[wood]], horn, amber, stone, bamboo, [[silicone]], fossilized ivories, tusks and other bones, etc.
