puzzle ring
Multi-band finger jewelry
A puzzle ring is a ring made of multiple interlocking bands that form a single design when correctly assembled but fall apart into separate pieces when removed.
Reassembling the ring requires fitting the bands together in the right sequence—a satisfying challenge for some, maddening for others.
They originated in the Middle East and were supposedly given as wedding rings to discourage infidelity, since a removed ring would be difficult to restore undetected.
