Most of the rules and constraints have practically disappeared over the years, and now hardly any protocol applies (unless you’re a royalty, of course). Having become a way of self-expression more than anything else, finger rings is a vast niche for jewelry designers.
Today we can choose from countless of rings, but let’s take a look at some of the most creative and unusual ones. Which one would land on your finger?
