About the stone

Blue sapphire is corundum coloured by iron and titanium — the same mineral as ruby, and just as hard at 9 on the Mohs scale. Neelam has been prized in South Asia for centuries, and at nose-pin size it reads as a small point of deep blue: quieter than ruby, and easy to wear every day.

Care instructions

Take the pin out before bathing or swimming, and keep it away from perfume and cleaning products. Wipe it with a soft cloth after wear. Rhodium plating will naturally lighten with daily wear — Nuraan’s lifetime replating guarantee means this is never a concern.

Frequently asked questions

Is the sapphire natural?

Yes. It is a natural sapphire — not lab-created and not glass. Like every natural stone it carries its own small inclusions and shade of blue, so no two are identical.

How do I put it in?

Slide the pin gently through your piercing and turn the screw until it sits snug — firm, not tight. The screw fitting keeps it from slipping out while you sleep or change clothes.

Can I wear it in a new piercing?

Wait until your piercing has fully healed. A fresh piercing should start with an implant-grade titanium or surgical steel stud; sterling silver is for piercings that have settled.

Is it safe for sensitive skin?

925 sterling silver with rhodium plating suits most sensitive skin. If you have a known metal allergy, message Nuraan on WhatsApp at +923207906077 before ordering.

How long does delivery take in Pakistan?

Made to order in 10–16 business days, then a few days with the courier. WhatsApp updates are sent throughout. For urgent orders, contact Nuraan directly at +923207906077.
