ring around

Someone asked the other day about the black ring I wear on my right hand. It’s an ace ring, asexual identifier, like a rainbow flag pin. You’ll catch sight of one once in a while, a few celebrities occasionally flash one.


   

                                                                                                                         
I can’t wear wide bands, though I love the look. My wedding ring at the moment is a stack of four 2mm sterling bands, each in a different design. For the ace ring I bought an inexpensive 2mm black coated stainless steel band, but it didn’t have enough visual heft. So I ordered another one just like it, planning to wear the pair as a double band. And then on Etsy I saw the tiny faceted hematite beads strung on fine wire, and I think it all worked out beautifully
