Signet Ring

My sister Justina and I were going through our book of THE ONE HUNDRED by Nina Garcia and we got to talking about Signet rings. We’ve always loved anything that is personalized as it's impossible to find something with our names on it that wasn't custom made. We each have our ‘name necklace’ which we wear almost daily however a ring would be much more of a statement piece.

With a Signet ring you can have your family crest or have your monogram. Not only do I love the look of these however I love the history. Important documents and letters were sealed with wax then imprinted with their emblem.
Then Justina and I had a slight memory of a ring that our dad had however he didn’t recall. After searching through his box of treasures we were surprised to find a ton loot including a gold monogram ring that was given to him years ago. Yes that's a Z for Zygmunt!!


I asked if I could wear it and of course didn’t understand why I would want to wear a man’s ring but I love it.. not only that its my dad's but I love the look of it. (I did however have to use a 'jumper' as it's far too big).

I think I might have to look into having one made for Justina and I.
