What do Lauren Conrad from MTV's 'The Hills' and Stones Throw DJ Peanut Butter Wolf have in common? It can be found on their fingers. From the bulky rectangular four-finger ring PB Wolf wore at Movement to the dainty, feminine two-finger ring Lauren wears, personalized multi-finger rings have a strong presence in the fashion world.
Taken from the notable Radio Raheem in Spike Lee's 1989 instant classic 'Do The Right Thing' and with eighties fashion still in full effect, the four-finger ring is a neccessary accessory.
Alex from Detroit recently asked us where to get a customized two-finger ring.
Rumor has it Conrad had hers custom made by Beverly Hills shop XIV and Mr. Wolf told us he just dropped by a local LA jeweler and told them what he wanted, they took his measurements and "it was a rap." He also added," P.S. Just don't put in on a plane in your carry on luggage! You'll get detained like I did."
This ring and its half sized two-finger ring can be customized and personalized to fit and represent you!
Some jewelry shops in the Detroit area have experienced goldsmiths that can help design and create anything the imagination can come up with. Depending on the metal, weight, and number of rings, these jewelers can create one of these rings from as low as $200 to as high as $1500!
