We get a lot of questions about our Oval Plugs, so we decided to take some time here to throw down a little information.
Q: What size oval plugs should I order?
A: The same size you normally wear your plugs!
Q: How are oval plugs measured?
A: Oval plugs are measured by circumference. This is why you'd order the same size of ovals that you normally wear in plugs, they'll be the same size around.
Q: How do I check the size of a pair of oval plugs?
A: To check the size of an oval plug, wrap a string around the wearing surface and mark where one end on the string meets the other. Then measure that segment of string and divide by pi- 3.14 to get the diameter. Diameter is the measurement you see used for round plugs.
Q: Does wearing oval plugs feel different?
A: In general, no, it feels the same as wearing round plugs. At larger sizes, oval plugs may feel a bit different because of the different weight distribution and having your earlobes closer to your head.
Q: Can I wear normal plugs again after wearing oval plugs?
A: Absolutely! Oval plug wear will in no way change the shape of your ears.

Check out the newest additions to our plug lines, designed &/or released in August.…
Each week the Omerica Organic Design Team works on a new wood plug style or two with the help of our Instagram, Facebook, andTumblr followers. We come up with up with an idea and create sketches, posting them each Tuesday for feedback from our fans. We then implement changes as needed and create prototype blocks of each plug style, complete with inlays and etched details that we post on social media on Wednesday. Thursday we finalize all the design details, launch the new style or styles to our website, and post finished photos on Facebook, Tumblr, and Instagram. An entire design cycle in one week pulled off by a design team of two; it's incredibly fun, challenging and rewarding, and also integral in helping us keep up the flow of fresh wood plugs and unique body jewelry styles to our site.
The new plugs we launched in July are pictured above and listed/linked below and were inspired primarily by summertime, fan requests, and wonders visible in the sky and from it.

At Omerica Organic, wholesale has been an ever evolving part of our business.
Back in May of this year, we finally debuted our online wholesale ordering system. This was a revolutionary development, because it streamlines wholesale account setup, ordering, and store locator additions. Having simplified these processes, we've been able to increase the wholesale discount we offer to shops who'd like to carry our plugs, pendants, earrings, rings, and dog tags, and has allowed us to remove ordering minimums.
With no minimum order size, nearly any shop, of any size can begin stocking our wood plugs with small orders or by placing custom orders for clients. Your local piercing shop is the perfect place to buy our plugs, as we hear time and time again that photos do our jewelry no justice, it's great to be able to see everything in person.
If your local shop doesn't yet carry Omerica Organic plugs, have them hit us up for info- [email protected] If you're a piercer, we'd love to make some wood adornment for your shop! Sign up for an account here- http://www.omericaorganic.com/wholesale-signup
