Armillary Sphere Ring

The Brass Goggles blog points to this amazing creation by the Acanthusleaf Design studio: an armillary sphere ring.

How cool is that? Don't be surprised to see something like this turn up in one of my stories, sooner or later.

Comments:
Pretty, but being made of brass you wouldn't want to wear it long - oils & sweat from your skin will pit it pretty quick.
 
Mmm. Good point. And gold might be too soft for something with elements as thin as this. Gold plated, perhaps?
