Title
The Carrotbox - glass rings, lucite rings, plastic rings, jade rings, wooden rings, resin rings and other non-metal rings
Description
The Carrotbox is a site dedicated to all those wonderful rings made of glass, lucite, resin, plastic, jade, wood, bakelite and even stone — anything, as long as it's not metal!
Why Glass and Plastic Rings?
It all started because I'm allergic to metals. I can occasionally wear sterling for short periods of time, but never on my fingers — and never anything that only looks like silver or gold. But I'd love glass and plastic even if I weren't allergic to "regular" rings. They're fun. And colourful. And inexpensive... usually.
But Glass and Plastic are Difficult to Find
Not impossible, but difficult. Plastic went through waves of popularity throughout the 20th century (see the history page for more), but since rings are small and easy to lose, most of the surviving vintage pieces are larger items like necklaces and bangles. Contemporary costume jewellery, meanwhile, is often silver or silvertone.
