With the exception of the diamond, corundum is the hardest of the gemstones on the Mohs scale scoring a 9.. This would have sent a powerful message to the receiver of such a gift. The use of the two pansies in the design mean “Pense à Moi”, a pun on the word Pansy, literally translated “Think of me”.

Oh my love

Like the first day
Think of me
The ruby is for love so it would have been a very special ring!
