Singelringen
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Singelringen is a Swedish company, whose product, also called Singelringen, is a "single ring". This unisex ring, featuring a turquoise colour acrylic layer shining over a silver band, is worn on the right hand or on a neck chain as the opposite of a wedding ring, to signify that the wearer is available for dating. On the inside of each ring is inscribed a unique registration number.
Johan Wahlbäck, the founder of Singelringen, while enjoying his single life, recognised that although married people and engaged people have rings, there is nothing that allows single people to clearly announce their status.
Singelringen started selling in Sweden in April, 2005 and is now a well-known brand in Scandinavia, and has expanded to Europe, South America, Japan, and Asia. It is currently being introduced to the United States.
Wearers who find themselves in a committed relationship report that they retire the ring to a safe place or pass them along to friends or family members.
