Both stones show, which is what makes a curved barbell different from a labret — in an eyebrow or rook you see one end above and one below, and here both are set rather than plain balls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProngs hold each stone from the edges rather than wrapping it, so light reaches the moissanite from underneath and both ends sit raised off the bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese are D color, VVS clarity stones. D is the highest color grade, meaning completely colorless, and VVS clarity means any inclusions are extremely difficult to see even under magnification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy moissanite:\u003c\/strong\u003e moissanite is silicon carbide, lab-grown rather than mined. It rates 9.25 on the Mohs hardness scale against a diamond's 10, so it resists scratching and holds its polish far better than cubic zirconia, which dulls with everyday wear. Its refractive index of 2.65–2.69 is higher than a diamond's 2.42 — meaning it throws more fire, not less.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy internally threaded matters:\u003c\/strong\u003e the threading sits inside the bar, and the ends screw into it. That means the section passing through your piercing is completely smooth, with no threads to drag against the channel on insertion or removal. It's the standard piercers use for a reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy you'll love it:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImplant grade titanium (ASTM F-136) — nickel-free and biocompatible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo D color, VVS clarity moissanites, one at each end\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternally threaded — smooth bar through the piercing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCurved shape follows the natural line of a rook or eyebrow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHolds its sparkle through daily wear in a way CZ does not\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo lengths and two finishes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGauge guide:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16G — rook, eyebrow, daith, and other curved barbell placements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSizing:\u003c\/strong\u003e curved barbell length is measured along the curve, not straight across. 8mm suits most rook and eyebrow piercings; 10mm gives more room where there's extra tissue or any swelling.
