Comfort interior for jewelry and jewelry including that interior
A novel structure for increased comfort and utility of jewelry items, particularly rings, is described and claimed herein. The structure, comprising a plurality of elevated surfaces within the interior of the jewelry item, allows increased blood circulation, increased air flow, and ease of cleansing, as well as increased comfort. A variety of embodiments are described.
1. A circular digit ring comprising:
a plurality of elevated irregularly disposed curved surfaces being disposed in a fixed relative orientation about an inner circumferential surface of the digit ring, wherein the elevated curved surfaces form substantially the entire inner circumferential surface of the digit ring.
2. The circular digit ring of claim 1 , wherein said curved surfaces are hemispheres.
3. The circular digit ring of claim 2 , wherein said curved surfaces are intersecting hemispheres.
4. The circular digit ring of claim 2 , wherein said curved surfaces are annularly situated about the interior circumference of said digit ring.
5. The circular digit ring of claim 1 , wherein said curved surfaces are semi-cylinders.
6. The circular digit ring of claim 5 , wherein said curved surfaces are intersecting semi-cylinders.
7. The circular digit ring of claim 1 , wherein said curved surfaces define a plurality of regularly disposed channels perpendicular to the circumference of the digit ring.
8. The circular digit ring of claim 1 , comprising the steps of:
a) providing the digit ring of claim 1 ;
b) providing a lubricant between said curved surfaces of said digit ring; and
c) removing said digit ring.
9. A circular digit ring comprising:
four elevated curved surfaces disposed about an inner circumferential surface of the digit ring, the curved surfaces being disposed in a fixed relative orientation about the inner circumferential surface, wherein the elevated curved surfaces form substantially the entire inner circumferential surface of the digit ring.
10. The circular digit ring of claim 9 , wherein said curved surfaces are hemispheres.
11. The circular digit ring of claim 10 , wherein said curved surfaces are intersecting hemispheres.
12. The circular digit ring of claim 10 , wherein said curved surfaces are annularly situated about the interior circumference of said digit ring.
13. The circular digit ring of claim 9 , wherein said curved surfaces are semi-cylinders.
14. The circular digit ring of claim 13 , wherein said curved surfaces are intersecting semi-cylinders.
15. The circular digit ring of claim 9 , wherein said curved surfaces define a plurality of regularly disposed channels perpendicular to the circumference of the digit ring.
16. The circular digit ring of claim 9 , comprising the steps of:
a) providing the digit ring of claim 9 ;
b) providing a lubricant between said curved surfaces of said digit ring; and
c) removing said digit ring.
