Septum piercing
A septum piercing is a piercing jewelry that is placed in the cartilage-free part under the nose. Some people say, to be funny, that it looks like a cow ring. You can choose to wear a simple ring, a piercing ring with crystals or a horseshoe as jewelry, depending on the style you prefer. In septums, it is easy to change the jewelry yourself so you can easily vary the style depending on the piercing jewelry you choose.
