Meet Anatometal
 
We know how much you love your Anatometal and what it stands for: handcrafted right here in the USA, made with only the highest quality  materials. There is so much that goes into each piece as it moves from our machine shop, to the polishing room, to the gold room, through quality assurance, packaging, and to our shipping department. We thought you would like to get to know the people who make that Gemmed Eyelet, Heart Navel Curve, and Nostril Screw possible! In the coming months, we will be invading all the departments here at Anatometal Headquarters and bringing our hard workers right to you!  



This month we bring you
:
Richard from Sales



Anatometal:
What do you do here at Anatometal?
Richard:
  I work in the Sales Department

Anatometal: How long have you worked for Anatometal?
Richard: 6 months!

Anatometal: What is your favorite piece that Anatometal makes?
Richard: I have to go with the Oval-cut Navel Curves. They are simple, but pretty.

Anatometal: Tell us three things about yourself.
Richard: Uhhhhh.... I am also a professional body piercer, I have a rad dog named Bossman, and I love Anatometal jewelry.

Anatometal: Ninjas or Pirates?

Why Do You choose Anatometal?
We recently asked our Facebook fans about their Anatometal choices and we loved the responses so much, we wanted to share them with you!

"We like to think that there are many reasons to choose Anatometal for your piercings, but we want to hear from you! Do you own any jewelry from us? What made you decide Anatometal was the jewelry for you?"


" Because no one else does bling like you. Seriously. My first pair was when I was at 1.25" and once I got my hands on actual ANATOMETAL products, there was no turning back. The quality is unmatched, the care and craftsmanship are legendary, and the service is what this country needs more of. After visiting the good people there, you were no longer my friends and colleagues, you were my family. It goes so much deeper than the jewelry and I can only hope that many other people get to know ANATOMETAL the way I do."
          - John Osborne


" Ummm because ANATOMETAL is the best.And why would I want to put anything but the best in me?"

          - Warren Hiller

  


 "I own ANATOMETAL pieces, and have carried ANATOMETAL in my shop since 1996, I have always been overly impressed with the quality I have seen from you. Some companies over the years I have seen cut corners, steal ideas, yet Anatometal remains true through the years, the quality is still there the same as it always has been. Thank you all very much for doing what you do and caring/striving enough to make it a better industry, without you we would only be 1/2 as awesome."

          - James Raimar

  

 

"You cannot beat the quality. The finish to the gems... every milimeter is perfect. The customer service is second to none. I had always loved it, but after seeing it first hand when ordering for my clients/shop I could tell hands down its the best body jewelry ever made."

           - Chris Newagetattoos Piercer

 

  

 "You got me with quality. Then beauty. But I will always stay for the amazing customer service."

            - Brandelle Manini 

 

  

  "I've been a fan of Anatometal before I could afford anything more than a stick of gum, in the 90s, when I started wandering into shops and browsing the Internet. I always thought for "basic" jewelry you all always had the nicest- smoothest edges, most brilliant finish, quality threading. Add to that being essentially local and staffed by folks that got glowing reviews from everyone I talked to... I was a shop kid for so long I became an unofficial "expert" and have been pleased to see that for every time I recommend you, your jewelry only gets nicer. After all these years I'm continually amazed at how many of your wares make me swoon. I'll have to try to find another time to come visit so I can bring hugs (and maybe pastries). Keep up the good work- you, IS, Little7, Onetribe, and Kaos were my favorite favorites from the beginning!! (And still are!!)"

          - Naomi Yoffe

  

"I didn't know about anatometal until my boyfriend (now husband) bought me a pair of eyelets for our first Christmas together. They were beautiful. I loved the quality and how nice they looked in my ears. To this day they are my favorite pair. My husband has good taste."

          - Tricia Piņa

 

  

 " Quality!!! Most jewelry at least from my experience you can wear for a little bit and it looks alright then you've got to replace it. With anatometal that's not the case ! Even years later my jewelry looks phenomenal! I don't like having to swap out jewelry especially in trickier places on my body and anatometal has allowed me to wear stuff for YEARS without fail and always looking just as good as the day I got it !"

          - Lisa Patton


 "For me it's the silky smooth polish! I fell in love the first time I saw and held a piece, and I haven't ever looked back!"

          - Vickyticky Williams

 

" After having been pierced with crappy externally threaded jewelry by a less than reputable "Piercer", my ear got infected and I was feeling really discouraged because my piercing I had wanted for a long time (inner conch) was all messed up. I started researching quality body jewelry, and found out that ANATOMETAL was the best stuff out there. I found a Piercer in my area who is a professional and pierces with your jewelry. He took out the craptastic piece that was in my ear and replaced it with a beautiful barbell, anodized blurple! Within a week, my ear completely cleared up! I was finally able to feel good about my conch! Thanks anatometal!"

          - Kara Riley  

" I know it's great quality and I won't get irritation caused by the wrong metal etc  (and it's gorgeous!)"

           - Lauren Bycraft
