18 Carat Gold & Platinum Acrostic Navette Ring — “ADORE”
 
A creation steeped in sentiment and old-world grace, this exquisite 18 carat gold and platinum ring celebrates one of the most charming traditions in antique jewellery: the acrostic ring. In such jewels, the initial letter of each gemstone spells out a secret message for the wearer or beloved, a private token of affection hidden in plain sight.
 
Here, a carefully selected suite of precious stones declares the heartfelt word ADORE: a natural Amethyst, a romantic rose cut natural Diamond, a natural round cabochon-cut Opal, a natural round-shaped Ruby and a natural round-shaped Emerald. Together they form a radiant miniature love letter in colour and fire, with the gemstones confirmed as natural by specialist gem testing, and the precious metal assessed by XRF analysis. 
 
Around this central acrostic, sixteen rose cut natural diamonds are set in a glittering halo, creating a soft constellation of sparkle that dances in the light. The rose cuts lend a poetic, candlelit shimmer that feels wonderfully romantic.
 
The navette-shaped head is fashioned in platinum and poised above an 18 carat gold band and under-gallery. This combination of platinum for the ring head and rich yellow gold for the band is especially evocative of late Victorian and Edwardian tastes, and, together with the use of rose-cut diamonds and that ethereal opal, suggests inspiration, if not origin, from that romantic early-20th-century era.​ 
 
A ring for the sentimentalist, the historian, or simply the romantic soul, it wears like a whispered secret: timelessly graceful, softly radiant, and spelling out one enduring word of devotion — ADORE.
