“ The sun became our enemy. It kept us indoors for weeks. And though my mother found a solution, there were other problems. ”
— Rebekah about the first daylight rings in Ordinary People

The Mikaelson Family Rings are the first daylight rings in history, created by Esther, the mother of the family, and the Original Witch. Esther enchanted six golden rings with lapis-lazuli stones for the six members of the Original Family of vampires (also known as "The Originals"), they prevented one from burning in the sunlight.

Although the Originals cannot be destroyed by the sun, the sun will burn them before they heal. Without their rings in the public, they would expose themselves as vampires. Since they were the first of their kind, only the originals owned daylight rings, and for many decades, it kept up, until the spell to create the rings was slowly revealed, and more and more vampires started to wear Daylight Amulets. Either by form of rings, or other jewelry.
