The title explains it all. Does anybody know where i can get a nice quality pair of Tiger's Eye stone plugs in 1 1/4? I've looked everywhere with not alot of luck. I thought about contacting a company like Quetzali (spelling) or Onetribe to make a custom pair.

Thanks in advance guys!

Those are absolutely gorgeous. My goal size is actually an inch and a half, so maybe i'll pick up a pair of those just to inspire me to keep stretching. heh.

They are kinda pricey but they look well worth it. If you order then, let us know how good this company is. They look nice but I haven't ordered from them yet.

Nods to that ^
Also; bodyartforms.com/productdetails.asp?keywords=tiger&jewelry=&gauge=1-1%2F2%22&length=&brand=&price=&material=&date=&restock=&new=&orderby=&RecordDisplay=&Filter=Yes&Extras=&Retainer=&Showout=&Threading=&preorders=&ProductID=6307&index=5

Tawapa sells loads, and actually they're fairly well priced (25% if you manage to order before Januarys over too)
tawapa.com/search.php?mode=search&page=1&sort=orderby&sort_direction=1&size=32mm%20%28~1%201/4%22%29(if link doesn't work, just search 'tiger's eye'). I'd buy those :)

I'd suggest this guy for stone too
etsy.com/shop/SouthHillStones
He does VERY well for the price, and he's super nice and good at answering questions.
He should be able to do 1 1/4" fine, just ask.
But his custom orders are closed again atm. Its his hobby, rather than a job, so he gets busy fairly easily. (Waiting to order something special myself)


If you have the money to buy I really like Onetribe or Relic Stoneworks. Though I'd probably save your money for something fancier, SUCH PRETTY ROCKS! D:
Theres also Oracle, but I've never been too sure about them.
I like Diablo Organics, but getting them to do custom is a pain (being wholesale), and I'm not sure they'd do it. Its not-exactly ground-breaking. A custom order through BAF is probably your best bet with them.


Rocks are my new obsession..
(wearing red tiger eye atm XD)

Ahh, Etsy! Someone told me about that website but i couldn't remember the name. I try to get all my plugs from my friend Chris at Kings Body Jewelry, but he has a hard time finding good, reliable vendors for stone plugs above 1 inch. I'll definitely let you guys know when i get those 1 1/2 plugs from BAF. Tiger's eye has become my favorite type of stone, or plugs all around and the concave makes it just that much better.
