Jennifer Aniston has been wearing the same piece of jewelry for the past 25 years.
The Hollywood golden girl first slipped it on when she was playing Rachel Green on her beloved long-running sitcom Friends in the early 2000s.
It is a thin 14kt gold toe ring which is worn on the third toe on her left foot.
The 56-year-old thespian was seen flashing the favorite piece of jewelry when in black strappy heels and an asymmetrical black gown on Wednesday evening in Los Angeles.
The versatile star was at the Variety x Apple TV The Morning Show finale and reception at the Linwood Dunn Theater in Los Angeles.
The blonde beauty from Southern California has been wearing the same toe ring since her early Friends days – the show aired from 1994 until 2004 – and she seems to have never taken it off.
The girlfriend of wellness expert Jim Curtis can be seen in photographs donning the unusual piece of jewelry as early as year 2000.
She seems to have it on when she is both dressed casually and also snazzed up to the nines in couture.
Aniston has had the ring on her toe even during her weddings to Brad Pitt and Justin Theroux.
The history of toe rings spans centuries, originating in ancient cultures like Egypt and India, where they symbolized wealth, status, and marital status.
In ancient Egypt, toe rings indicated wealth and were thought to enhance fertility, while in India, they remain a significant symbol of a married woman’s status, known as ‘bichiya’ and linked to both tradition and ancient Ayurvedic practices.
Western adoption began in the 1970s, popularized by the hippie movement and the influence of Indian culture, and they have since become a widespread fashion accessory.
This sighting comes after a report that Aniston feels ‘very safe’ with new boyfriend Curtis.
The Along Came Polly actress started dating the 50-year-old hypnotherapist earlier this year and friends say Jennifer is smitten with her new beau.
A source told PEOPLE: ‘He is kind and grounded. She acts like she feels very safe with him. She’s really in a great place.’
Jennifer also ‘admires’ Jim’s work, and the pair have a great deal in common.
The insider said: ‘Their relationship is different. She’s very excited about it.
‘It’s obvious that she admires him. She talks about how he has amazing energy, and she loves what he does for living, because it truly helps people, including herself.
‘They both liked little rituals and moments that are grounding. They are both into symbolism.’
Meanwhile, Jennifer spoke about Jim in a recent interview, calling the life coach ‘very special’ and ‘very normal’.
She told ELLE magazine: ‘ Hypnotism is one of the many things that he does. He’s quite extraordinary, and helps many, many people.
‘He’s very special, very normal, and very kind, and wants to help people heal, move through their trauma and stagnation into clarity. It’s a beautiful thing to commit your life to.’
Jennifer – who was previously married to actor Brad Pitt actor and was in a relationship with Justin Theroux from 2015 until 2018 – was first spotted with Jim when the pair vacationed together in Mallorca, Spain, over the Fourth of July weekend this summer.
After Jennifer made their relationship Instagram official, Jim reciprocated by adding more pictures of the pair together and wrote: ‘If this is a dream I don’t want to wake up.’
