Elizabeth Woll / Audrey Says Hello!

As a creature in the wild, it would terrify me like nothing else. As a ring, however, the "scissor peacock" is pretty cool. For the equally cool "scissor feather" necklace, as well as striking pieces in pleated polyurethane, check out Massachusetts metalsmith Elizabeth Woll. More of her rings below:

Bonus link: here's a peacock ring, sans scissors, by Australian designer Karen Thompson. Her site, Audrey Says Hello!, specializes in "silver jewellery for plus sizes."
