A true classic in the world of jewellery is the Russian Wedding Ring. Representing the Holy Trinity (not it’s only meaning) and traditionally in tri colour gold they are simple and timeless.

Recently I had the opportunity to make one, all in yellow gold I had melted down from an antique bangle belonging to the customer, imagine the memories! 

They are a tricky piece to make, with a lot of guesswork (that has to be exact!) involved, especially when it comes to

Joining the rings together

Much to my surprise the rings were perfect first time around, my ‘guesswork’ was spot on! So no amendments needed the rings fit like they were made for each other…!

For Then, For Now, Forever

Such a traditional piece of jewellery in the Russian culture that has been adopted worldwide, you can find many meanings throughout time. By far my favourite meaning though is the 3 bands being

‘For then, For now, Forever.’ So lovely.
