A jewelry ring worn around the neck is called a collar.

Collar is a kind of jewelry that clings to the neck and has a long history. Traditional collars in China are usually made of metal materials such as gold and silver, and adorned with long-life locks or jade to show their blessings.

However, the most popular collar now refers to the neck necklace, which originated from the upper class in Europe and has been changing with the trend under the impetus of the industrial revolution. Nowadays, collars can be made of different materials to convey different messages, such as cuteness, sexiness, luxury or rebellion. In addition, the collar can also play an aesthetic role in modifying the face.

As an ornament, the collar is called a neck necklace.
