A Victorian Love Story

 

For those who know that choosing, and choosing again, is not old-fashioned, but love in action.

In Victorian times (c. 1837–1901), courtship unfolded slowly, shaped by letters, planned visits, and time. Love was shown through constancy rather than declaration. Through flowers instead of words. He arrived when he said he would. He stayed.

 

Reimagining Jewellery Through Choice

When he gave her a ring, it was not to mark a moment, but a life. Something she would wear often, without ceremony. Something that would witness days turning into years.

The promise was simple and serious. They would choose each other again tomorrow. And the day after that.

This is our idea of an heirloom. Something you choose again, every day.

Inspired by Victorian-era jewellers and their enduring fascination with light, stars, and radiance, and the love stories they shaped, we present three heirloom rings: The Starburst Heirloom, the Sunray Heirloom, and the Starlight Heirloom.

The Victorian Starburst Heirloom Ring, Padpadradscha Sapphire (18KT)

The Victorian Sunray Heirloom Ring, Teal Sapphire (18KT)

The Victorian Starlight Heirloom Ring, Jade (18KT)
