One-line definition
A collar is a ring worn at the neck, commonly symbolising a D/s relationship, belonging, role, or pet play.
Full definition
The collar is probably kink’s most recognisable object, and its meaning is entirely contextual: a committed D/s relationship, a scene-only play collar, a pet-play accessory, or simply fashion. Discreet versions, such as a chain, a ribbon, or a lockable bracelet, let the symbol pass unnoticed in daily life. What any specific collar means belongs to the people who put it there; see collaring for the relationship side of the object.
