2) Frog Prince Ringholder
If you’re in the habit of taking your rings off—to do dishes, say, or work out—make it a habit to place them on a Lucina K. pewter ring holder. Founder Lori Strickland designs the ring holders herself, then has them sculpted in wax and cast in 100% lead- and cadmium-free American pewter.
