The creation of jewelry is an activity that has its roots in prehistoric times., Engagement rings are among the most fascinating objects imaginable. We can ourselves experience the excitement of wearing one, even just by wearing our grandmother’s old ring!
Although the The oldest engagement rings date back to 1447, In the year this jewel was invented, the art of jewelry has a very ancient history; no people have ever given up creating precious artifacts to use as ornaments or symbols of power. Fortunately, Soon the wonderful properties of gold were discovered: its extreme malleability and total indestructibility, thanks to which we can still admire the ancient jewels of peoples that have now disappeared. At the Metropolitan Museum of New York I was amazed by the quantity and sophistication of the gold objects on display: Roman crowns, patriotic fibulae, Mayan amulets, Greek earrings, ancient Turkish rings… A spectacle for my eyes! If you haven’t been there yet, you can admire photos of some of these treasures on Website of the museum.
Unfortunately, in our daily lives it is not easy to be able to try on or even just observe ancient engagement rings; usually the oldest jewelry we come into contact with is that of our older relatives. But even these can hold interesting surprises. I have met Many girls love to wear their grandmother’s old diamond ring, And not infrequently it is an important item, with a 2 carat diamond, although perhaps not very pure and of a yellow tinge. Today the market demands pure diamonds of white color (GH) or extra white (DEF), But beyond that, I always recommend choose ethical diamonds.
But if there were the possibility of creating a personalized engagement ring in an antique style to give to your girlfriend?!

Daniele contacted me because he wanted to design a ring with a very special diamond. He wanted an important ring, adorned with 3 blue sapphires And from some hand-made engravings, we thought of every single detail together. Two vegetable stems intertwine and open on both sides of the ring, creating a harmonious and romantic decoration.
