Do thumb rings have special powers?
I don't normally wear a lot of jewelry, but I just got a thumb ring and I am loving it! I can't understand why I like it so much, I've never had this reaction to any jewelry.

Is there something supernatural about them, or what? Has anyone had a similar experience?

1. It may depend upon your profession:
Thumb Rings in Literature and History

Thumb Rings Significance

I can't wear rings, so I have no experience with them.

4. You've heard of a green thumb?
Well, thumb rings can give you a purple thumb...if they're too tight.

6. I think their original purpose was to keep your thumb from getting stuck in a plum
