------ ''2009-11-06 21:46:12'' [[nbsp]] I just went to Dorje four days ago to get a nostril piercing. This shop is so great! Nick is a very experienced piercer, and the shop is so thoughtfully run! I really like the way they put effort in decreasing the amount of waste as well as using vegan materials when possible. You feel at peace when you enter the shop, it's a great experience. If you are going to get something pierced, I'd go here! --["Users/sparkly"] |

Dorje Adornments is a piercing studio, operated by Nick Giordano and Bonnie Harter, two professional piercers.
Nick and Bonnie each have 9 years of experience and have taken specialized classes in oral & maxofacial anatomy. Additionally, they both hold OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Certification, and are Red Cross first aid and CPR certified.
The shop has a Tibetan Buddhist theme and private piercing rooms.
All jewelry is
autoclaved prior to insertion in a fresh piercing. Needles are one-time use only and disposed of in a medical sharps container. All tools are cleaned by using a three step process ending in autoclave sterilization. They spore tests their autoclave monthly through an independent laboratory to ensure it is functioning properly. They have the monthly spore test results on file since the day they opened and will be glad to share them with you.
They offer a wide selection of body jewelry with a focus on jewelry for enlarged earlobes. Dorje proudly carries fair traded and easily sustainable organic jewelry, much of which is made by local artists.

2007-01-29 01:09:15 I highly highly highly recommend this shop above all others. Nick has pierced me many times as well as a large number of my friends. Also, don't go to Ultimate in Henrietta anymore... these two were the talent behind that operation. —MisterElkington
2009-06-18 18:22:53 Went there today to pick up some new jewelry, and they were extremely helpful, and informative. Got me what I wanted quickly, and helped me put it in. I was in and out in under 15 minutes, didn't spend more than I wanted, and now I look fabulous. I also got to take a peak at the pericing space, which was much more private than I expected, and of course clean. —ThatkidwiththeHawk
2009-06-19 13:41:03 I have been going to Bonnie and Nick since 2003. I recommend them to EVERYONE I come in contact with who asks about my piercings or we have just a general conversation about piercings/tattoos. They are the ONLY ones who will ever pierce me in the future should I decide to get any more done. I have gone to other places and NEVER NEVER again. The shop is ALWAYS clean, they will go the extra mile for you in making sure you'll be happy with your choice of piercing or jewelry. They have been the only ones to pierce my husband and when my daughter is old enough for her first ear piercings she will go to them as well. So if you're searching for a piercer your search should end here! :) —AmyLessord
