Orfeo Quagliata
These beautiful, space-age objects are handmade glass rings made by designer Orfeo Quagliata, who was raised in a San Francisco art commune and now works in Mexico City. They're amazing, and amazingly, they come in sizes; my ring size is 5 1/2, so whenever I see pretty, fun things like this, like big plastic rings, the Dior lipgloss rings, etc., they nearly always come in only one size, and are too large for any of my fingers. While one of Quagliata's banded glass vases will set you back $600, these modern baubles are so affordable (some of these are under $30, others are around $65) you could buy a shimmering, light-catching double-handful of them! They're candy for grown ups.
