At Trinity, gemstone choice is about more than brillance.

July 2025

For piercing professionals, gemstone choice is about more than brilliance. At Trinity, we believe beauty should never come at the cost of ethics or performance. That’s why the majority of our gems are lab-made — a choice rooted in responsibility, sustainability, and reliability.

Why Lab-Made Gemstones?

Lab-made stones offer the same visual beauty and performance as mined stones, without the environmental damage or human rights concerns. They’re chemically identical to their natural counterparts, offering stunning clarity and color — all while minimizing impact.

We favor European-crafted crystals and zirconia known for precision cutting and consistent quality. These materials are free from conflict zones and avoid the murky supply chains that can accompany traditional gem mining.

How It Impacts Your Studio

Choosing lab-made stones helps position your studio as one that prioritizes ethics and client trust. Clients today are more informed and value transparency. Highlighting your use of ethically sourced, lab-made materials can elevate your brand reputation and attract conscious clientele.

Performance You Can Trust

Our lab-grown stones are selected not just for their ethics but for their durability. They hold up to autoclaving, resist discoloration, and maintain their luster over time — ideal for professional use in healed or initial piercings when used with approved materials.

The Trinity Standard

We partner with trusted international manufacturers who meet our stringent specifications. Each stone is set in nickel-free, implant-grade metal — whether it's ASTM F136 titanium or other certified biocompatible alloys. All gems undergo rigorous inspection and align with our published Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS).

At Trinity, ethical sourcing is more than a tagline — it’s how we lead the industry forward.
