JLV's Crazy Ideas about the ring:

It is connected to Voldemort's `immortality', which is why the shape 
matches the shape of Harry's scar (i.e. the shape itself isn't 
relevant, but the fact that they match *is*). On a side note, I am 
also sure that Harry's scar will disappear when Voldemort is 
defeated.

It's a Black family heirloom (as it is black) that Harry inherits. 
Sirius had a whole lot of interesting magical artefacts (mirrors, 
the knife etc)



as does Lucius Malfoy – perhaps his secret stash is discovered now 
he's in jail and this ring is amongst it. It *must* be full of Dark 
Magic.

Ooh so another candidate for ring ownership is Severus Snape.

It also could be the ring of Slytherin which will be found in the 
Chamber of Secrets (as pictured on the back cover).

Alternatively it is a good ring – something Dumbledore uses to 
protect Harry??

Okay, I'm out of ideas for now – but loving the suspense. But funny 
it had to be a ring
 you'd think JKR would be sick of LotR 
connections so would avoid suggesting them
