We investigate the entanglement properties of finite spin rings, with noncollinear Ising interaction between nearest neighbors. The orientations of the Ising axes are determined either by the spin position within the ring (model A) or by the direction of the bond (model B). In both cases, the considered spin Hamiltonians have a point-group symmetry instead of the translation invariance that characterizes spin rings with collinear Ising interaction. The ground state of these models exhibit remarkable entanglement properties, resembling Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ)-like states in the absence of an applied magnetic field (model B). Besides, the application of a homogeneous magnetic field allows to modify qualitatively the character of the ground-state entanglement, switching from multipartite to pairwise quantum correlations (both models A and B).
