Rings
This category includes jewelry worn on the fingers or the toes.
Rings are usually made of metal with stone or other metal designes. They can be worn on the finger or the toe and are usually only distinguished by their placement on the body. They are distinguished from hair and ear rings by their size and lack of coils.
