mood ring
Color-changing band
A mood ring is a novelty ring containing a thermochromic element that changes color in response to body temperature.
Popularized in the 1970s, the rings were marketed with the claim that different colors indicated the wearer's emotional state—blue for calm, black for stressed.
She checked her mood ring to see if she was relaxed.
