Well, first off, 1inch gague doesn't exist. You're looking for 1" plugs, yes? Hottopic would fit the bill, but only if you wantses cheap stuff. I'd have to say that BMEshop.com is prolly the best place. They have metal and silicone, as well as some made of organic materials and glass.

Remember, 1" is not a gague. Gagues go up tp 00ga tops when talking to someone who actually knows what they're talking about. After that it's just measured in inches or millimeters. I'd assume that if your ears are stretched to an inch you'd know more, but the body mod world just isn't what it used to be... I hate being the "I want it NOW" generation.

Edit
I've heard fabled stories of 00000ga, but it just seems too out there. You hit 00ga, and make your way into sizes measured in inches or millimeters. Really, I think it's crazy to reffer to someone with three inch holes in their ears as haveing 0000000000000ga plugs *and no, I don't know if that would be the right amount of zeros*

A 0ga 9s actually 5/16, nowhere near an inch. Anyways before I preach, I'm gonna shuttup andsend you to a site containing everything you'll ever want to know about piercings/tattos/body mods in general, as well as a bunch you'll wish you hadn't read.

Sorry no one inch. It goes from 2ga to 0ga. Then 00 and then from there each company makes it up as they go. A inch would be about a 0 ga. When in this gauge the choices are usually plugs. Plugs can be acrylic, glass, bone, clay, rock, or whatever the artist can conjure up. To get something worthy of "Mr. Ear" you will need to talk to your local piercer and ask him if he can direct you to someone who makes custom pieces. Most of the time a local piercer makes some of his own jewelry or buys from someone who does. That way you can sit down and talk about what you are looking for in your one of a kind piece. Expect to pay for the artists time and materials.
