An evocative early mourning ring, rich in history and sentiment. At its centre is an oval glazed panel featuring a delicately painted scene of a willow tree and an urn, a composition typical of 18th century mourning jewellery. Incorporated within the image is the hair of the departed loved one, making this a deeply personal and intimate memorial.

The band is engraved with the original dedication:
“R Prentice. ob 20 March 1779 AE 69.”
While the band would originally have been finished with enamel, this has been lost over time through wear and loving use, adding to the ring’s honest sense of age and history.

In mourning symbolism, the willow tree represents grief, sorrow and remembrance. Its drooping branches echoing the posture of mourning, while the urn symbolises the soul and the body’s mortal remains. Together, they form a powerful visual language of loss, memory and enduring love.

A rare and moving survivor. Not only a piece of jewellery, but a tangible expression of remembrance from the late 18th century.

My new favorite summer sandal!
Size: 8.5, Color: Bay Fog
I am loving these shoes so far this summer! The color is so cute, perfect for a light summer palette. It's the perfect light purple that doesn't make me look pale or washed out. For reference, I have fair to light neutral skin tone. They are SO comfortable - a little too comfortable for a shoe, it's more comfortable than my ugg slippers! They do take a second to put on as you have to either force your ankle in without unstrapping the back - don't judge me - or undo them. Thankfully they have a strap to help get them on easily. I love these shoes. I am a medium width, but I think these have some wiggle room since both the straps are velcro and adjustable somewhat. They are easy to walk in, hold onto the foot, have been more balanced than some others I have had in this platform style, and are very cushioned to walk in. Slight arch support to me but I have somewhat high arches so if you are more flat footed or standard arch these will give you even better support. Really impressed with these. They are more casual but work with many different outfits from sundresses to jeans. For me, these were a great buy and I will be wearing them all summer.

Style, Comfort
Size: 9, Color: Sand
If I could give a Ten Star review, I would. Hands down the most comfortable pair of sandals I have ever owned. I wore them 16 days straight while touring Italy. Comfortable and goes with all of your outfits. They pack well in a suitcase too. Light weight.

Wonderful
Super comfy and easy on and off, yet stylish imo! I could walk miles in these as a 56 yo and have worn them for three years! I hope they never stop making them. The only tweek I would suggest is to cover the footbed with leather or suede not cloth so they would last longer!
