Abstract
The object of the invention is to provide an individual setting for displaying finger rings similar to finger ring boxes but which prohibits unauthorized withdrawal of the ring from the display. The finger ring supports are wedge-shaped and are secured to a main support surface. Each wedge-shaped support has a transverse slot to receive the closed loop portion of a finger ring and a bore from the base side of the wedge extending beyond the transverse slot slidably accommodates a magnetically attractable ring locking member which passes through the closed looped portion of the finger ring and the ring locking means can only be removed from the bore by a magnet, the ring not being removable from the support without a magnet and the point to place the magnet not being visible by the observer or prospective purchaser.
