Septum Circular Barbells & Horseshoes

A circular barbell — often called a horseshoe — combines the best of both worlds: the open ring shape gives you a hoop aesthetic, while the two removable ball ends keep the classic barbell versatility. Worn in the septum, a horseshoe is the go-to for anyone who wants to flip the jewelry up into the nostrils to hide the piercing at work or school, then flip it back down to show it off. Our septum circulars are handcrafted in solid, nickel-free 14k gold with gorgeous ball ends — simulated opals, genuine pearls, diamond-paved gold, and more. Most septums are 16g; the open gap makes them easy to put in, and because we make each to order, you can dial in the diameter that fits your anatomy. You and your septum will love the high-end circular barbell peeking from your nose — and others will envy the fine quality they can see.
