RUNNING THE GAUNTLET

TWO BOOKS

One HISTORY

An Intimate History of the Modern Body Piercing Movement

Between 1988 and 1996, Gauntlet produced three videos showing the piercing techniques in use during those times.
These are not “how to” videos, but rather snapshots of the procedures in use during those years.

We are proud to announce our partnership with Anatometal to offer limited editions of classic and original Gauntlet jewelry designs. Some have been cast from waxes pulled from the original molds. In some instances new molds have been created from original Gauntlet pieces. One design has been recreated from photographs. Every piece in this collection comes with a numbered Certificate of Authenticity signed by Jim Ward.
