No...BR pg. 56, Rule 3-7, A.R. 18: "Player A5 is found to be wearing jewelry. Ruling: The game shall be stopped. A5 shall be required to remove the jewelry immediately or be required to leave the game and not return until after removing the jewelry. A5 cannot "buy" the right to wear the jewelry by being charged with an indirect technical foul." So no T, she just leaves the game until she can get it out...
