- Description
They said Joan never married, but the truth was more romantic than any proposal. In the spring of 1942 she fell for a French artist who sketched her portrait in a garden blooming with irises. He gave her a ring — a delicate band of gold set with violet amethysts, the same shade as the flowers where they first met. When he returned to Paris, she slipped the ring onto her finger and never took it off, waiting for a letter that never came.
Featuring three natural violet amethysts set in solid 9k gold and size US 7, this vintage-style piece feels both delicate and enduring. One of a kind romance. Each ring is hallmarked for authenticity and can be sized up or down up to 2 sizes by a jeweller. (We can do this for an extra $125)

Jewellery care
Rings are under daily attack from life so need to handled as delicately as possible.
Showering is perfectly fine, but Chlorine and salt are corrosive chemicals and they will limit the life of your jewels with prolonged exposure.
Rinse them in clear water after an ocean dunk and keep them away from perfumes, retinol and sunscreens and other lotions - Careful handling will keep you and your jewels golden!
