Abstract
An article of jewelry adapted to be worn over a human thigh. Included in the article is a substantially closed circlet having a length and flexibility that allows it to be draped loosely around the thigh. Supporting the circlet is a suspension member that is adapted to hang from an undergarment of the wearer. A link member loosely and slidably couples the suspension member to the circlet, allowing the circlet to move smoothly without irritating the skin of the wearer.
Claims17
An Article of adornment adapted to be worn on the person, comprising:
- a) an elongated flexible suspension means having an upper end and a lower end;
- b) a flexible circlet having a length and a cross-section attached to said lower end of said suspension means and
- having a dimension large enough to allow said circlet to be draped loosely around a selected human body part:
- c) a link means having a rigid opening larger than the cross-section of said circlet, for movably coupling said circlet and said suspension member;
- d) said circlet having a substantially rounded cross-section that causes said circlet, in combination with said opening, to pivot around its longitudinal axis within said opening and to slide along its longitudinal axis within said opening responsively to motion of the human body part, without substantial deformation of said rigid opening.
An article of jewelry adapted to be worn over the thigh of a human wearer, comprising:
- a) an elongated flexible suspension member having an upper end and a lower end, said suspension member being adapted to hang downwardly from a garment of the wearer;
- b) a circlet having a length which allows it to form a semi-taughtly hanging loop when suspended in encircling relationship to the thigh;
- c) linking means having a rigid opening larger than a cross-section of the circlet for loosely connecting said suspension member and said circlet;
- d) said circlet having a substantially rounded cross-section that, in combination with said opening causes said circlet to pivot around its longitudinal axis within said opening while in use;
- without substantial deformation of said rigid opening.
A method of using an ornamental article on a human body part comprising the steps of:
- a) furnishing an elongated flexible suspension means having an upper end and a lower end, a flexible circlet having a length and cross-section attached to said lower end of said suspension means and having a dimension large enough to allow said circlet to be draped loosely around a selected body part;
- a link means having a rigid opening larger than the cross-section of said circlet for movably coupling said circlet and said suspension member, said circlet having a substantially rounded cross-section that permits said circlet to pivot around its longitudinal axis within said opening and to slide along its longitudinal axis within said opening without substantial deformation of said rigid opening;
- b) placing said ornamental article on a body part;
- c) causing said circlet to move in its intended manner by moving the body part.
