You know when you’re at the wrap in a boutique and there is a little basket heaped full of random, sometimes wacky rings? I’m the woman who can’t help but find a diamond in the rough every time.

One of my favorite online shops to browse for rings is The Carrot Box. Devoted to carrying an amazing array of unique rings made from wood, glass and acrylic by various jewelers, I was excited to see this new line of rings by British designer Sarah Thirlwell. Made from sustainable birch and reclaimed acrylic, they are substantial, sleek and hard not to notice. (Sarah also makes stunning vases and objet.) If you share my addiction to rings – or shall we call ourselves ring connoisseurs – then these are sure to inspire. ($70.)
