Circular Barbell
From BMEzine Encyclopedia
(Redirected from Circular barbell)
A barbell does not need to be straight. A common variation is a circular barbell, a barbell bent fully into the shape of a ring, with one or both ends threaded to accept a bead.
This jewelry design is also sometimes called a "three quarter bar" (because it is about three quarters of a circle).
Alternative Names
- Horseshoe Barbell
- While no longer a common style of jewelry, in the early 1990s, horseshoe barbells were more literally horseshoe shaped (like a circular barbell where the end segments are straight) as seen in the image above.
