Paul Michael Bierker of the Etsy store Paul Michael Design is doing his part to make jewelry geekier with his Boba Fett rings. The rings come in a variety of sizes and materials and are made for both ladies and gents. Despite the differences in style, each ring shows off Boba Fett's face, making it overtly obvious that you're a fashionable Star Wars geek.
Although they're inspired by a character in a sci-fi film, these Boba Fett rings aren't designed solely for geeks. Each one is made with top materials, including 14 karat gold. That means that these rings can get a bit pricey, with the top-shelf one coming in at $875. That may sound like a lot to spend on nerd bling, but that being said, there aren't many high-quality pieces of Star Wars jewelry on the market.
