To go with a cassock and a new biretta (the 3 gore squarish hat) there's a new ring, simple and symbolic of one's fidelity to Jesus Christ and the Church.

Great stuff!
Although the WART on the finger with the ring is creepy. :)

warts aren't something ordination or cardinalatial creation takes away or heals. sadly. with all the hands to pick from, the photographer chose the warted cardinal!

I don't know, when I saw the wart I thought "here is a human being". Also inspired that the Lord chooses Princes of the Church - Warts and all. Sorry, I just couldn't resist.
