Materials Information

Glass

Glass products are all manufactured from heat treated, tempered glass to minimize the risk of the glass cracking and causing damage. All glass products are handmade so may vary in size and colour.

Stems will self tap when first used or use threading tool or pliers.

Titanium

All Wildcat titanium products are made from grade 23 titanium certified for permanent implantation in the human body by international medical bodies. It is the highest grade titanium available for use in jewellery.

Internally Threaded

To cater to our customers who prefer to use piercing needles rather than canulas we now supply a range of internally threaded jewellery, designed to minimise any damage to piercings when inserted.

316L Surgical Steel

Our supplier uses either Composition D Implantation Steel, 316L or 316LVM surgical steel for all our body jewellery. Although these high grade steels do contain nickel they do not release nickel salts into the body and do not induce nickel dermatitis.

Implantanium®

Implantanium® has been developed as an alternative to Titanium in the search for a low nickel alloy containing less than 0.05% nickel by mass to meet the EU nickel directive for primary piercing jewellery.

Silver Collection

The Silver Collection products are all manufactured from high quality 925 Sterling Silver to our usual exacting standards.

Gold Collection

NOTE: WE CANNOT SHIP GOLD TO SWITZERLAND DUE TO CUSTOMS PROBLEMS. We only use 14 and 18 Carat Gold for products in our Gold collection as 9 Carat Gold is in our opinion likely to cause allergic reactions being only 37.5% Gold and 62.5% "other" metals

Horn, Bone, Tusk and Tooth

We take pride in having one of the world's largest range of hand carved Indonesian Buffalo Horn and Bone jewellery. The Horn and Bone used is strictly a by product of the farming of the buffalo and would otherwise be discarded.

Mammoth Ivory

Our unique collection of Mammoth Ivory jewellery is made from fossilized Mammoth Ivory retrieved from the Siberian permafrost.

Baltic Amber

All our Amber products are carved from genuine Baltic Amber except the AIPs which are moulded from 50% Baltic Amber and 50% Synthetic Amber to allow the inclusion of the insects. Amber is considered chemically inert.

Professional Hardware

All clinical steel instruments are manufactured in the UK and are CE marked as required by the EEC.

Niobium

The Niobium Wildcat uses is a highly (99.9%) pure form of the metal which prevents problems with corrosion that can be found with less pure Niobium. One of its unusual properties is its ability to be anodised or heat treated to appear black.
