Magic rings

One of the uses of jewellery is as a talisman or religious symbol. This poster reminded me of that, although I would say this fits in the charlatan category.

Often we get clients who have a particular stone, generally a yellow sapphire or a ruby which must sit low in the setting so it touches their skin.

Something to remember as we make objects is what symbolism they embody and how this will be interpreted by others.
