Memorable and Invaluable

A few weeks ago I was contacted by Ryan 

from Invaluable.com an online auction market place

asking to share a story behind a most prized jewel.

Invaluable offers a variety of jewellery, including

watches, rings, and necklaces for auction.

Black patent flats Viascar - Coach bag 

So I began thinking if I had anything that had been
passed down through my family or maybe something
picked up while thrifting or traveling…

Jeans Zara - Houndstooth button down shirt - Striped sweater Tommy Hilfiger

While there are plenty of both: family and thrifted, 

I chose to share an item that began its story with me.

It was ring I had made for my birthday this year, 

as a gift from me, to me.

My grandmother had given me an amethyst 

she purchased many years ago, in Brazil, I think -

and I had several pieces of gold from old and 

and broken jewellery.

So after several hours on the internet looking for a simple 

design and one trip to the jeweller, the idea of placing this 

amethyst and two rubies together in a ring made 

with old gold, this item came together.

Its story begins with me.
