Description
This sublime 19th century “Toi et Moi” or “You and me” ring features two brilliant-cut stones set in a claw: a 0.1 carat diamond and a bright pinkish-red ruby of 0.15 carats. These two identically sized stones face each other, intertwined by two lines of 18-carat yellow gold. A sophisticated piece that enhances the brilliance of the diamond and the vibrance of the ruby for a striking contrast.

The story: the first famous “Toi et Moi” ring was the one given by Napoleon Bonaparte to Josephine de Beauharnais during an engagement. Since then, this ring model has been a classic of engagement rings, symbolizing the two hearts ready to unite forever. Depending on the stones that are associated with each other, the symbolism of the ring can be personalized: here, the diamond, symbol of eternity, is united with the ruby, symbol of passion and ardent love. These are also the birthstones of the month of April (the diamond) and July (ruby).
