What Are Captive Bead Rings?

Today if you look around you would find that wearing trendy attires alone is not sufficient to make a style statement, what is important is that you wear the trendiest outfit coupled with a body jewelry piercing.

Youngsters today have developed a rage for body piercing jewelry and have been getting various body parts pierced and because of this increasing rage of body piercing, the demand for body jewelry is also increasing. Be it Belly Rings, Tongue Rings, Nose Rings it’s all in vogue and in demand.

One of the Body Jewelry Piercing which is picking up on popularity is captive bead rings which are also known as ball closure rings. These are basically rings with a bead in between which is held by the pressure of the ring. The captive bead fits into a small opening in the circle of the ring. If you have a look at the captive bead ring you would notice that the bead is larger than the opening and has small indent that let the ring’s end-points fit tightly against the ring, thus completing the circle of the ring. Often, a hole is drilled through the bead to allow easier fitting.

Captive Bead Rings can be easily wore and taken off either by applying hand pressure or by using some ring opening pliers.

These days’ captive bead rings are available in steel, crystal, acrylic, white gold, silver, yellow gold, titanium etc. You can find different styles and shades in these rings and are easily available online.

Hope the read was informative for all the body jewelry piercing lovers.
