Game of Bones - Lovers of Valdaro Claddagh Fede Victorian Inspired Memento Mori Skeleton Ring with Crown and Hands - Spooky Drawlloween
This ring was inspired firstly by Drawlloween 2022 and todays (10/12) prompt of Game of Bones. When deciding what to make for this prompt I was inspired by the famous Lovers of Valdaro grave of a man and a woman who died in each others arms in Italy approximately 6,000 years ago. They were uncovered in 2007 there is something extremely romantic to me about their fate and their final embrace. The ring is also a bit of nod to the tradition Claddagh rings with a crowned heart and the heart being held by hands. And lastly I have lately been researching Victorian jewelry quite extensively and have fallen in love with the Fede rings which are generally 2 clasped hands representing a token of loyalty or faith between two people.
This ring has a heart shaped center with my version of the embracing skeletons. Above the heart is gold crown and 2 hands are holding the heart and crown.
Your ring will be made in your choice of 14k yellow gold, 14k rose gold, 14k palladium white gold or oxidized and polished sterling silver.
The top of the ring is 19mm's wide and the band is about 2.75mm's wide at the back.
Your ring will be made to order our turn around time is 4-6 weeks.
♦ We use only conflict free stones and recycled metals.
♦ Unsure of your ring size? Please select the smallest size when checking out and I will send you a ring sizer in the mail after purchase to confirm your size.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
We include a polishing cloth with every order. For at home cleanings I
recommend using a soft tooth brush and some warm soapy water. I
recommend a mild and natural soap like a Dr. Bronners or a Mrs. Meyers.
If your ring has stones you want to be sure to clean behind them as well
to help them stay extra sparkly.
If you have a high shine silver ring that you want to stay as shiny as
possible store it in an air tight container when not wearing it to avoid
oxidization.
