The present disclosure provides a merchandising ornament. The merchandising ornament includes a stone at least semitransparent, a near-field communication (NFC) chip, an upper decal, and a lower covering. NFC chip is coupled to the stone and configured to store touchpoint information to transfer to a receiving device. The stone includes a generally planar base. The upper decal has a top face and a bottom face with the top face bearing a design and being adhered to at least a portion of the planar base of the stone. The design on the front face is visible through the stone. The lower covering has a top face and a bottom face with the top face of the lower covering being adhered to the bottom face of the upper decal such that the near-field communication chip is secured and concealed between the upper decal and the lower covering.

A cover device formed of a plastic or similar composition is structured for removable attachment over a bracket of an orthodontic appliance to conceal the bracket from view. The cover device includes a main plate with an outer front face, and top and bottom claws integrally formed with the main plate, curling behind the main plate, and each terminating at distal ends in spaced, opposing relation to each other behind the main plate. The front face includes an ornamental design or other indicia that is applied by polymer fusion technology to significantly reduce the risk of exposing the user to inks and pigment compositions, particularly if the cover device is accidentally swallowed. The application of the indicia by polymer fusion technology also increases the structural integrity of the cover device; mechanically strengthening the cover device at its point of greatest flexure.

A necklace keeper or clasp for securing a jewelry item and for receiving one or more charms. The clasp includes a support member constructed of a support ring that extends less than a full circle so as to define a support ring gap, and a top head piece that extends upwardly from the support ring. A sliding lock pad engages with the top head piece and is normally biased to an extended position. A guide ring is providing having a channel for receiving a support ring and extending less than a full circle so as define a guide ring gap. The sliding lock pad has a lock position in which it engages the support ring to inhibit relative rotation between the support ring and the guide ring; and has a release position in which there is relative rotation between the support ring and the guide ring so that the respective supporting ring gap and guide ring gap each align.

The present application provides a nose stud used for perforating and a perforating apparatus. The nose stud used for perforating comprises a needle tip and a needle bar, wherein the needle tip is connected to one end of the needle bar, and an easily bendable portion, which bends when the needle tip is subjected to a resistance force under a force applied by the needle bar, is provided at a joint. As a bendable structure is provided at the joint between the needle tip and the needle bar, the needle tip can bend relative to the needle bar after perforating the nose to avoid damaging tissues in the nasal cavity.

A wearable jewelry holder including a main body with a front surface, a back surface, and a jewelry through hole extending through the main body from the front surface to the back surface. The jewelry through hole is configured to receive a jewelry item therethrough. The wearable jewelry holder further includes a first bracing member connected to the back surface and defining a first chain through hole, and a second bracing member connected to the back surface and defining a second chain through hole. The main body and the bracing members are collectively configured to hold the jewelry item upon insertion of the jewelry item in the jewelry through hole and insertion of a wearable chain through the first chain through hole, a through hole of the jewelry item, and the second chain through hole.

Provided is a wearable device for displaying translucent stones and the like. The wearable device comprises a base, a back plate, a bezel and a locking element. The base comprises a cavity, at least one base locking element a recess comprising a recess void and an illumination assembly in the cavity wherein the illumination assembly comprises an illuminator capable of emitting light. The back plate is reversibly mountable on the base. The back plate comprises at least one back plate locking element. The back plate locking element is reversibly engageable with the base plate locking element. A tab is provided on the back plate which is receivable by the recess. The tab comprises a tab void which is alignable with the recess void. An illumination window in the back plate allows light to transmit through said illumination window. The back plate also comprises at least one securing recess. The bezel is reversibly mountable on the back plate. The bezel comprises a viewing window and a securing tab wherein the securing tab is received by the securing recess. A locking element extends through the aligned tab void and recess void.

A ring-type wearable device is disclosed. The disclosed ring-type wearable device comprises: an outer ring member; an inner ring member separably inserted into the outer ring member; a sensor unit disposed in the outer ring member; and a control unit disposed in the outer ring member so as to be electrically connected to the sensor unit, wherein the sensor unit can maintain constant sensitivity in correspondence to the thickness of the inner ring member.

The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods of killing cells in vitro or in vivo. In particular examples, the method includes contacting a cell having a cell surface protein with a therapeutically effective amount of an antibody-IR700 molecule, wherein the antibody specifically binds to the cell surface protein. In particular examples the antibody recognizes a tumor-specific antigen on the surface of a tumor cell. The cell is subsequently irradiated, such as at a wavelength of 660 to 740 nm at a dose of at least 1 J cm.sup.−2, thereby killing the cell. Also provided are wearable devices that include an article of clothing, jewelry, or covering; and an NIR LED incorporated into the article, which can be used with the disclosed methods.

An ornamental device includes: diamonds disposed on a single support element in a specific physical arrangement, all the diamonds in the specific physical arrangement having a blue fluorescent equal to or stronger than strong blue, wherein all the diamonds in the specific physical arrangement shining clear under a visible light, and shining blue under ultraviolet radiation keeping the specific physical arrangement distinguished from a group of diamonds in the specific physical arrangement, the group of diamonds comprising a mixture of a diamond or diamonds having a blue fluorescence equal to or stronger than strong blue and a diamonds or diamonds not having a blue fluorescent equal to or stronger than strong blue.
