Nana Vivienne Westwood Ring



I've had a lot of people reaching my website by searching for the words "NANA Ring" or "NANA Vivienne Westwood Ring". If that's you, and you're looking for pictures, come back soon and I will have pictures ^_^. If that's you, and you're looking for info on where to buy the ring, then read on!

I was totally charmed when I first saw NANA's ring. I don't even usually care that much for jewelry, but her ring is special ^_^. I looked first on e-bay for the ring, and they do sell fake versions of it for cosplay purposes. Some vendors give measurements and others don't. But note that all fake versions extend to almost the entire finger, and are very loose. Plus the segments of the ring are joined together by large hinges. So you do compromise a lot on the integrity of the ring's look by going with the cheap version. The ring is pretty complicated as far as rings go, so that's to be expected. (In general, do be careful of buying Vivienne Westwood jewelry on eBay.)

If you decide to make a splurge and buy the real thing, I would recommend buying it from hervia.com. I had a good experience with them. I'd also recommend looking at rakuten.co.jp for pictures of how it looks on a real finger =P and also for lots of nice pictures of Vivienne Westwood jewelry. They also have Nobuo's knuckle ring. I've said it before--- I really am not a big fan of jewelry. But I really do like the unique Vivienne Westwood pieces.

That's all! Hope that helps!

Sry it's anonymous again. Would you happen to know where I could get Shin's lighter? I can't seem to find it anywhere! Thanks again you're really a great help!

sorry anonymous... in the manga, it's mentioned that shin's lighter is a rare edition vivienne westwood piece. so it's not a surprise that you can't find it anywhere. if you found it, it'd also prolly be crazy expensive. is it important to you that it's functional? if not, a large orb necklace looks similar.

Thank you for your assistance. I have to admit, I've fallen for that ring due to the show... but I really like the studded version better than the one that NANA sports. Well, anyways, I just wanted to post my thanks (with wishes that I can remember to hoard enough money to indulge in that ring).

Hey, i'm planning to buy that ring in china. but judging from the ebay stuff, the ring will be too big for my finger. i really hope not. maybe there are more sizes??? my fingers are slender so ya. most of the fake ones are 2cm wide. my middle finger is about 1.7cm. i'm planning to get the knuckle ring too~
thanks for your info.

By the way, the orb lighter on that Japanese website... Would you care to guess how much? Roughly $2520.00, possibly even more. Ouch.

note: before buying a ring online, measure around your finger with a string, and go to a site that lists ring size for finger circumference.

anonymous: the lighter for $34? woh. nice.

Do you think that this ring would look weird on a guy? I know that this is a weird question, but I really love it, and other finger armor rings I have seen aren't that nice, and all of them take up the entire finger.

i think lots of jrock/jpop male band members wear this ring, so i think it looks good on a guy, especially if you have slender fingers.

I don't have that slender of fingers, and in all truth I can't afford it, but thank you for your time.

Interesting because of the fact eBay started out as a black market selling hard to find items such as cable descramblers ultralux fx , smoking tools, firearms etc...Those are a few of the things that made ebay successful

Um, it has to have hinges. Even the real rings have them. How would it work without them?

I really like the theme of your website. It totally fits in with the retro video game part. I have to admit, I have never seen rings like that though.

Sorry, an anonymous.

A few years ago, when I was a niave NANA brat, I bought a orb necklace off of ebay for 70 bucks. the owner claimed it was real. Whatta liar! It fell apart after like a month. Plus the chain was rusty.

Never ever buy anything like Vivienne Westwood off of eBay. just warning the noobs. Unless, of course, you want a bootleg. But even with those who claim they sell real VW stuff, you have to take extra precautions. Chances are, 99% of the time, it is fake. (100% positive feedback doesn't mean anything when most fans can't tell if it's real or not.)

I'm actually ordering from hervia today. I'd much rather buy a legit orb then support the black market unknowingly. (Hervia.com sells legit stuff.)

Nana's ring is nice, but she could use an automatic watch. To take good care of, Nana will place in in an automatic watch winder.

I've been doing my own online business for sometime and I must admit getting rankings is not easy. There are many tools to help you along the way like market samurai (keyword research) and others. However I would say to invest time in learning the business before investing any money at all because you can find yourself over spending. In these trying economic times you will find more and more people looking towards the internet for an alternate source of income but one must be aware that the competition is great.
