Sometimes when I look at you, I feel I'm gazing at a distant star. It's dazzling, but the light is from tens of thousands of years ago. Maybe the star doesn't even exist any more. Yet sometimes that light seems more real to me than anything.

edwardian 'moi et toi' diamond ring

$18,000.00Price
  • A late Edwardian 'moi et toi' ring, French for 'me and you', symbolic of love, set with two old european cut diamonds, each just under 2 carats, finished with black enamel and a halo of rose-cut diamonds, size 6.

  • Historically, the Edwardian period lasted for only the nine years that King Edward VII was on the throne (1901-1910). However, the style has its roots in the years leading up to Edward VII's reign and extended for at least a decade after his reign came to an end. Edwardian jewelry contrasts markedly with other prior and concurrent styles. Edwardian jewels are largely crafted in platinum, though early examples may consist of platinum topped gold as jewelers familiarized themselves with the new metal. Designs are distinctly monochromatic and predominantly feature diamonds and pearls, often surrounded by lacy and delicate openwork and pierced designs. These complemented the prevailing pastel fashions of the day.
