neck ring
Rigid collar ornament
A neck ring is a rigid circular ornament worn around the neck, typically made of metal.
In some African and Asian cultures, stacked neck rings elongate the appearance of the neck as a beauty practice.
Neck rings also appear in archaeological contexts as ancient jewelry, and in modern fashion as bold statement pieces: She wore a gold neck ring with her evening dress.
