Five Crazy (Not Golden) Rings from the Web

2009-02-18T14:09:00.000-08:00

Surfing around I often find some interesting, outrageous or just plain ugly (but compellingly ugly) rings out there. Here are some of my latest finds.

2 Karat Engagement Ring

Two karat engagement ring. Um, that is, two carrot ring ... 'nuf said! Source.

Industrial Wedding Rings

Not sure which ring is supposed to belong the bride, and which to the groom. Wait a second ... let's see ... oh, right, got it! Giggle. Source.

Chest of Drawers Ring

Great! A ring where you can keep small and important objects. What are those round pieces of jewelry called again? Source.

Cup Ring

It's hot. You're thirsty. You come across a cool stream. You drink from it, but then you need to get on your way. No Nalgene bottle! What to do? Wait a minute, I have a liquid-holding vessel right here on my finger. Thank god!!! Source.

Vacuum Tube Ring

That AM radio set not working? No problem, I have the hardware here right on my finger. But, oh, wait, that would leave me with ... um, an incredibly industrial, ugly piece of metal. Sorry. Get XM (or is that Sirius?). Source.

More Valentine's Heart Rings

2009-01-27T09:07:00.000-08:00

Keeping with Valentine's day theme, I thought I'd share some of my favorite heart ring pictures with you.

"Diamond" Heart (eBay)

Isn't this just the coolest heart ring you've ever seen? And though it looks flashy, it's actually stainless steel and CZ rather than white gold and diamonds. Okay, I like diamond and gold ... but I'd rather pay $30 than $3000!

Single Heart Ring (Zeta Tau)

Simple yet different. I like how it's chunky ... makes a statement!

Double Heart Ring (Bid or Buy)

Aw, nothing says love like intertwined hearts. What would be great is if you could get one for your boyfriend or husband, and one for yourself. Um, right ... and that might just be more girly than you'd like your man to be anyway.

Triple Heart Ring (Diamond Harmony)

Alright, this is a bit over the top ... but it's pretty! This is the real meal deal: 40 diamonds set in white gold.

Happy Valentine's day, ring lovers!

Online With a Valentine Heart Ring

2009-01-19T07:48:00.000-08:00

I'm obsessed with rings, and I think it's about time that I start sharing that obsession with the world.

Of course most girls like jewelry, but I'm particularly thrilled by rings: diamond rings, gemstone rings, silver rings.... If it fits on a finger and sparkles in any way, I love it!

With Valentine's Day right around the corner I thought I'd start my ring blogging career with this picture of an aquamarine and diamond heart ring. Needless to say, I wouldn't put up any objections if this little baby fell into my lap on February 14th! I know that a heart ring for Valentine's is a little bit of a cliche, but - being the universal symbol of love - there's really no time that you can't slip on a heart gem, right?

Anyway, great to be online, and I look forward to sharing all of my favorite rings with you out there on the Internet. Please let me know if you find any cute, cool, beautiful or unusual rings. I'm always looking to add to my collection, even if that's only in my mind!
