This is a pretty cool design – a ring that actually expands and contracts to fit your finger. No more resizing, or tiny balls of gold applied to the inside or ring guards. Perfect for people with arthritis, or those who just have a large knuckle, or whose hands may swell in the heat (and contract with cold weather).

By Italian jeweller Picchiotti, they note, “The XPANDABLE™ Collection is a revolutionary new line of diamond and gemstone jewelry that uses innovative – and invisible – technology to expand and contract, solving a myriad of comfort challenges. A first in the High Jewelry arena, the Xpandable™ Collection combines knockout designs with perfect fit. Rings stretch easily over the knuckles and contract back in place. Bracelets stretch smoothly over the wrist with no need for cumbersome clasps. The Collection includes exquisite Xpandable™ eternity rings, fashion rings and bracelets in the most precious metals, diamonds, colored gemstones, ceramics, mother-of-pearl, turquoise, coral and more.”
