What happens if my order is not in stock?
If your order is not in stock and you gave us your credit card details, we
will not process your card. We will first contact and offer you similar
substitutes. If you agree to it then we will process your card and send
your order out. If you have ordered over 50 pieces of each design, we
prefer to make your exact order. Normally, it takes about 2-4 weeks to
manufacture an order that is not in stock.
If your order is in stock, we can arrange shipment immediately after
receipt of payment. If you gave us your credit card details, this means
your order will be processed in a few days. Please allow 5 days for
shipment to reach you from the date we send it.

Body Piercing
Our expanding range now includes Titanium and Solid 14K White &
Yellow Gold.
Surgical grade steel
We import the stainless steel (316L grade) used in body piercing jewelry
from the UK. The base component is engineered in England but the polishing
and stone setting is done in our factory in Bangkok, Thailand. This way
our customers get a superior engineered product hand finished to a high
standard at competitive costs.
Sterling Silver
All our Sterling Silver jewelry is minimum 92.5% silver and carries the
'925' hallmark. We have a very strict quality control that ensures that
every piece is checked to meet and pass a high standard so that you the
customer is 100% satisfied.

The Management of Avant Garde Body Jewelry takes great pride in their
designs. Each design is critically judged for its use of the stone, use of
natural light, practicality and price. We are constantly experimenting and
critically judging all designs that we create. We follow the world fashion
markets very closely and look for ideas and inspirations from both within
our establishment and the world at large. We are particularly strong in
the young fashion arena. Most of our designs are for the teen age to mid
20s' age group, something chic but yet affordable. We are very price
conscience but at the same time very quality and design oriented.
We want you to be able to wear our body jewelry on a daily basis with
confidence. Our aim is to deliver to you a quality product at a very keen
price, hassle free.
