Rings

Rings, ah rings, not just a pretty thing to adorn a finger. They tell stories, give you history lessons…
Did you know, for example, that traditionally the women and young girls from the Omani southern Dhofar and the Yemeni region of the Hadramout were given a set of ten silver rings, one for each finger, each one giving a blessing??
The long triangular ring which goes on the index finger of the right hand, is for blessings when you point it towards Mecca. Maybe you are enchanted by the ring displayed here. Traditionally worn on the little finger, if it could speak it could tell you of the harshness of daily life in the desert, relieved by feast days and family gatherings celebrating the birth of a child. You could impart secrets to it and make up ones to tell!
