As mentioned in the short description, this ring has been engraved by hand by a master hand engraver. I would like to point out that this is not me! I do love engraving but I stick to engraving in wax which I feel is more my forte, like sculpting. Engraving by hand in metal requires a whole different skill set. It requires the years of practice, training and steadiness of a surgeon. I’m in awe of the ability of the hand engraver.
I love this ring not only for the quality of the engraving but also because of it is an exquisite example of the traditional skills of a by gone era. Yes, you could duplicate this ring these days using a computer. But, I can tell you, it would not compare in quality, crispness nor beauty to the hand made version.

Care Instructions:
-
- Gold does not tarnish so it’s not necessary to use commercial cleaners or the (included) anti-tarnish cloth.
- If a build up develops under the setting(s) resulting in the stones looking less brilliant, simply take a soft tooth brush, dip it in some warm soapy water and proceed to scrub away the dirt/build-up under the setting(s).
- In addition to free cleaning and polishing for life you are also welcome to send/bring back your piece at any time for a complimentary assessment.
- Over time a ring you wear every day will get small scratches developing into a lovely ‘worn’ polished patina. I encourage people to learn to love this burnished finish as constantly polishing your ring actually removes a tiny bit of metal each time.
