My theory is that Bismuth made the rings with the same materials/technology used in Gem weapons that makes them part of the Gem. Pearl and Amethyst's weapons haven't really changed their appearance while Garnet's gauntlets did, maybe because she wanted to. Those rings are a part of her now, so that she can't lose them in case she gets poofed. They just retreat into her gems.
