The Linking Finger Rings is one of the most intimate and powerful pieces of magic you can perform. But its methods have always had compromises. After years of struggling with existing gimmicks, Carisa Hendrix (the person behind the social media sensation Lucy Darling) set out to create a version with cleaner linking and unlinking that would fit a modern audience. The result is “Nova Rings”, the most visual and by far the easiest version of the Linking Finger Rings ever to be created.
Three rings are borrowed from the audience. You take two of the rings, give them a squeeze, and instantly link them together. The third ring you tap against the other two, and it visibly links onto them. Then, just as easily as they linked, you can unlink one of the rings and give it back immediately. To unlink the last two, you ask the ring’s owner to hold out their hand, and they watch as their ring melts right off. It’s that clean. There are no awkward moves; just clean, pure, magic. Don’t believe us? Watch the trailer and see what "Nova Rings" are capable of.
"Nova Rings" are exquisitely engineered to be the best Himber Rings out there. This new gimmick allows for links and unlinks that were previously impossible. You can have the rings melt off your finger, place them in your palm and squeeze them to link them, or even toss them onto the stem of a wine glass. Carisa personally tested over a dozen prototypes to ensure they’ll withstand anything you can throw at them and look great while doing so.
The rings are modeled after the profile of a popular metal band and fitness tracking rings (such as Oura Rings), which makes any switch virtually imperceptible. The rings are indistinguishable from what you would find on your audience’s fingers, and the minimalistic design removes any sense of a gimmick being in play.
Each set of "Nova Rings" includes all three gimmicked rings (black, gold, and silver) and matching ungimmicked rings. Everything is designed to be transported in the included case, which not only stores the gimmicks and non-gimmicked rings but can even help facilitate the secret move. You’ll also receive detailed video instructions from Carisa on the rings’ history, ideas, and, of course, routines. Carisa insisted that we include five live performances so that you can see different variations of her routine and how she adapts it to different venues. But you don’t have to be Lucy Darling to pull off these presentations; they are designed to be used by any performer, regardless of your style.
Carisa’s precision-engineered gimmicks are based on Pete Biro’s “Ghostly Finger Rings” design and is used with permission from the Joe Porper estate. This unique design allows you to use normal-looking rings instead of the clunky signet rings typically used for this effect. When it was released in the 1990s, just one of the “Ghostly Rings” retailed for $700. In this set, you get three. Carisa’s changes to the design allow you to do clean links and unlinks, and you can even use the "Nova Rings" close-up and right in front of the audience’s noses.
"Nova Rings" is a guaranteed show-stopper. This is one of the most talked-about pieces in Carisa’s shows, and now it can be one of the most talked-about pieces in yours. Get yours from Pegani today.

If you have explored similar gaffs, from traditional Himber to high end Porper you will be thrilled to see that special “something” that has always been missing but so logically needed has finally been made available. They look good, work well and allow for an ease of handling simply not possible with any other design.” - Luke Jermay
