Fox Umbrellas Solid Stick Umbrella

Just got mine (scorched maple), absolutely beautiful. Holds up as a walking stick as promised! Just two questions:
1) Honestly, what is the rubber ring for? All I've read is that "solids can't have a tip cup, so here's a ring." So... is it a spacer between the metal tips and the wood? Or does it go over and around the tips to bring the folded canopy in to make it look tighter? I feel like an idiot for asking, but I just don't know.
2) Somebody below asked about after-market collars. It would seem to be an engraved plate wrapped around and nailed on. Anybody have experience with adding this?
Thanks!

EdblncMonths late, but I’ll reply. The ring goes over the tips when closed, so it won’t open if the wind blows.
