Ecthomo: Digby and Iona
Posted by Qais Fulton
There is no argument among Ecthomites that the classic weaponized jewlery of yore is gorgeous. Yet owing to its antiquated nature, bits and bobs of the destructive ilk can be both difficult to acquire and fragile (once the former issue is overcome).
Jewelers Digby and Iona seek to skirt this problematic issue with their Fall line featuring the above piece. While inoperable as a weapon of elegant destruction the ring is none the less a fearsome addition to any finger.
If digit-weaponization isn’t your thing Digby and Iona also have a moustache pendant available (among other quaintly curious adornments) for all your moustache emergencies.

Those jewlers are pretty sweet. I like the octo-ring. Their stuff is a bit pricey, but at least it isn’t made out of blood diamonds.

I love that pistol ring. Definitely out of my price range also. Would be cool if it were truly functional.(What would that do to your knuckle?

I’ll put on my gun nerd hat here and say that even if it were functional, it might put your eye out, but that’s about all.
I do believe that it’s a copy of the antique working ring gun seen here:
