Look, a bare hand just waiting to be adorned!

Now, thanks to an Icelandic jewelry designer, these knuckles and others like it can sport some eco-conscious bling.

Consider the so-called hand rings very portable, very personal Chia heads. Alternatively, they could also be construed as non-electronic virtual pets that will need to be fed and watered and trimmed, but won’t cry for attention.

So get one to show off your topiary skills.

De-stress at work by trimming off the edges every now and then.

Or use the foliage as a portable source of slightly fresher air whenever the atmosphere feels stuffy.

If this piece of jewelry takes off,  it could have an impact on certain tense scenes in books and movies, the ones where the hoodlums reach into their pockets and slip on the brass hardware — which are considered illegal weapons in many places — in order to deliver a strongly-worded message or two. Those bits might come across differently if the bad guys pull out these moss-covered knuckles.
