jewelry (3)


This is my wedding ring, which changed a few months ago. Previously it looked like this (see here too), a little bit round and a little bit square. Now it's totally round, a bit thick and irregular.

Here is the story about it. Our wedding rings are made in silver and were crafted by a friend who is also an astrologist. He melted the silver at a certain hour a certain day specific to us so that the metal would absorb good vibrations. Then last year, when I started to not like mine so much anymore, he just hammered it into another shape, without melting it, so that it would not loose its properties.

So now I have a new wedding ring but it's still connected to J's. How nice is that? I love that I could change it just like that. I like traditions and have a lot of respect for them, but at the same time I think it's good to change when you feel like it's time.

  4. Your ring is beautiful, but I wonder what your husband thought when he saw you hammering your wedding ring... :-)

  5. Laura > Hehe, well as I was working on things in my relationship with him, it was a perfect way to embody this, and he totally understands that, so was happy I did it.

  6. Je ne me souviens plus de son nom à lui, mais sa boîte ou son atelier s'appelait "La rencontre de la lune et du soleil" ou quelque chose comme ça. C'est le même ?
    La mienne est légèrement différente, mais celle de mon mari est identique à la tienne.
