The fisherman's ring.
The Ring of the Fisherman, traditionally worn by the Pope, is a symbol of his authority and role as the Bishop of Rome. While replicas of the ring can be created for decorative or commemorative purposes, they do not hold the same significance or authority as the original.

Therefore, while anyone can wear a replica, it should be understood that it is not an official or sacred item.
