Ring (jewellery)

A ring is a round band, usually made of metal, worn as ornamental jewelry. The term "ring" by itself denotes jewellery worn on the finger; when worn as an ornament elsewhere, the body part is specified within the term, e. g.

, earrings, neck rings, arm rings, and toe rings.
Rings fit snugly around or in the part of the body they ornament, so bands worn loosely, like a bracelet, are not rings.
Rings may be made of almost any hard material: wood, bone, stone, metal, glass, jade, gemstone or plastic.
