I do not understand what you have written about a ring that is never 
removed, unless one is talking about an older woman. Aren't all rings 
removed when a woman goes to the mikvah?

My wife has pointed out that at times she sees woman put their rings 
in their mouths when they wash and then make a brocha before putting 
them on again.  Is this not questionable regarding the saying of a 
brocha with something in one's mouth.
