Finger piercings are just part of the long list of growing [jewelery and piercing trends](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/titanium-jewelry), although this one does not appear to be too common yet.

I'm not sure whether the pictured ring was intended for a particular funtion, or if it was purely cosmetic, but either way, more creative adaptations will of course be possible.

Whether [finger piercings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nipple-pushup-bra) catch on like nose or eyebrow rings or even [tattooed rings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manly-bands-x-jeep-rock-crawler-ring) remains to be seen, but if shock value is any indication, this one seems to have a good chance of sticking.
