DEAREST

A Dearest Ring is a romantic and loving gift that echoes the sentimental and narrative driven poetry of the Victorian Era that was steeped in imagery and drama. The Victorian era linked Romanticism and Modernism and is perfectly represented by the Dearest Ring, a ring that embodies romance and modern expression. A Dearest Ring is a form of acrostic jewellery and the style and sentiment can be expressed in a range of jewellery including pendants, earrings and bracelets.

Dearest Rings take the concept of an acronym and transform this through the creativity of jewellery. The tradition of this ring uses an acronym and pairs relevant gems and stones to represent a word significant to both the giver and receiver. Traditionally a Dearest Ring contains a Diamond, Emerald, Amethyst, Ruby, Emerald Sapphire and a Topaz. Other varieties of this ring include the Regards Ring containing a Ruby, Emerald, Garnet, Amethyst, Ruby, Diamond and a Sapphire and the Adore Ring featuring an Amethyst, Diamond, Opal, Ruby and an Emerald. These rings were very popular in the Victorian era with the gems and stones assembled in a straight row, octagon, or the shape of a flower.

A colourful piece of jewellery that showcases a variety of gems and stones and expresses a personal sentiment. It is the perfect gift for a loved one, family, friend or as a special gift for yourself.

Here at Nique Jewellery we love the history of this ring and the opportunities this style allows to create either a traditional or modern version that will embody your story. We can interpret this tradition to create a bespoke piece of jewellery that spells out a word or name that hold great significance to you.
