I have been wondering about the possibilities of making collars and BDSM items out of advanced ceramics, as there is some very interesting materials out there now, even flexible ceramics, shock resistant, machineable, and just plain tough. I believe the material has in it's mix, other substances such as alumina and zirconium. The very use of a circle of this material will help with the structure. http://www.dynacer.com/properties.htm I am a metal worker, my interest is art metal, but I am looking more into these materials as a viable alternative, but have yet to understand how they can be succesfully and economically formed in a small workshop enviroment for small scale production. Moulding a collar is an interesting departure from beating the thing out of hot metal or forming out of sheet. But as per the OP's requirement, perhaps search a friendly ceramicist who has skills in these materials
