nosering

Pierced nostril jewelry

A nosering is a piece of jewelry worn through a piercing in the nose, either through the nostril or the septum (the cartilage between nostrils).

Nostril rings are common fashion accessories; septum rings have associations with both punk aesthetics and traditional cultures where nose piercing has ceremonial significance.

Bulls wear nose rings for control—a handler can lead a massive animal by the ring.
