Catalan term or phrase: Anell de bronze de dues voltes
Hi. This is a piece on exhibition in a museum. The full listing is:

Anell de bronze de dues voltes, segle III aC, Puig Castellar

I've assumed this is a ring that wraps around twice, and may query the client. I've temporarily put double ring, but I feel like there is a way we say this and I have no idea what it is. Any ideas? Thanks.
