Looking for growth and commitment on your ring finger? Meh, neither were we. Yet harvesting some green on our very own hands sounds like an intriguing prospect indeed. With the help of our friend Chia, and the innovative Icelandic designer Hafsteinn Juliusson, we can wear a real live patch of grass on our fingers and around our necks. Don’t have a green thumb? We’ve also got a synthetic solution for you on the super cheap.

RANDOM COOL: Growing Jewelry

Edited by Kirby Marzec

In the city of neon and chrome, we seldom see vegetation…and if we do, it’s in Central Park or trampled on, growing through lonely sidewalk cracks. In his experiment to draw nature toward man, designer Hafsteinn Juliusson brings the metropolitan folk a series of hand rings with the ability to grow grass and moss! Juliusson’s Growing Rings, despite their need for constant nurturing, are some of the most innovative jewelry pieces i’ve seen so far! These pieces are a very bold statement, serving as the focal point for essentially any outfit…how could you miss the 4-finger brass-knuckle garden!? Starting at about $400 for the simplest of designs, these rings are a splurge worth splurging for!
