Abstract
A ring with a plurality of hidden internal compartments for receiving articles includes an inner circular member and an outer circular member. The outer member defines a plurality of laterally separated, inwardly open compartments for receiving articles and an inwardly biased tab at least partially disposed in a predetermined one of the compartments. The inner circular member is concentrically mounted on the outer member for rotation relative thereto and defines a single aperture therethrough. The aperture is configured and dimensioned to at least partially receive the tab or to act as a passageway for articles into and out of a radially aligned one of the compartments, depending upon the relative rotational orientation of the inner and outer members.
