A ring symbolizes tradition, friendship, fashion and marriage. With Jonathan Ben-Tovim’s creation, rings can also be used as means of communication--so long as the message is 64 characters long and the wearer knows binary code.

Jonathan Ben-Tovim’s Encoder Rings are adorned with little holes that actually stand for letters in binary code. So far, the encoder ring can only hold a 64-character message. Each ring features a personalized 64-character message that is translated into binary code. The ring is produced using rapid-prototyping technology.
