Spotlight on Rings

The ornamental purpose of jewelry is steeped in symbolic meaning. The ring, for example, represents unity and eternity, which is why it is traditionally associated with marriage and other important unions.

It is said that all rings were once magical or sacred. Given their circular form, rings were considered objects of protection, a magical guard, or a talisman to ward off negativity through its continuity.

Modern times both honor and defy tradition as jewelry designers create circular, spiral or square rings.

Rings from Bali, India and Thailand celebrate nature through animal and floral themes featuring gemstones set in silver, as well as original rings tooled in leather or carved from wood. Mexico offers original painted cedar wood rings amongst its many styles, while Andean rings replicate cave art and Inca glyphs as well as more modern, even cosmic styles.

Brazil is famous for its natural gems therefore designers maneuver silver or gold to maximize the flow of their energy, resulting in highly original ring designs.

Men's rings are varied and attractive. Novica's ring collection for men features cobras, horses and elephants, as well as classic or trendy styles that are cast of silver, tooled in leather, or carved from ebony.
