Oh I have a ring like that - which I used to wear all the time and stopped because it was liable to slip off at the worst moments and I would have to scrabble for it under shelf units in shops and so forth. I did think it was looser sometimes that others and always just thought it was PMS but maybe it was the ring changing size!!!
Come to think of it, it does have writing around it inside and out, it was found (in a secret drawer, in a writing box with other jewellery), I coveted it like mad when it was discovered because I was already heavily into LoTR, it was passed from my grandmother to my mother who gave it to me when I went to Australia when I was 18 ....so you could say it was
an heirloom of my house. And it is very precious to me (most of my jewellery has such sentimental value that I never wear any of it).
It seems I have had a Ring of Power all this time and not known.... mind you I don't seem to remember it exerting a great deal of power other than helping to ward of creeps when subtly transferred to the third finger of my left hand .. which was useful in my younger days as a female solo traveller in certain parts of the world.
