Cleopatra's Feast
A luscious visual feast of a ring, this one is inspired by the sumptuousness of The Banquet of Cleopatra. The legend which is depicted in many paintings tells the story of the rivalry between Cleopatra and Mark Antony as to who could host the most expensive feast. Cleopatra won the wager by taking off her priceless and rare pearl earring, dissolving it in a cup of vinegar and drinking it. We've tried to capture a feeling of luxury and excess in this ring, with generous flashy stones in unusual cuts, held up on the heads of an amphisbaena (two headed snake). This motif is a nod to her future death where she is bitten by an asp (Egpytian cobra). Specifications: - Gold Vermeil (Sterling Silver, gold plated) - Non-adjustable ring, UK size R - Focal Cubic Zirconias (hexagon and heart shaped) - Natural Rubies - Hallmarked Jewellery care:
Gold plating is not eternal and with time, your jewellery piece will go back to silver. In order to preserve the gold colour as long as possible, make sure to remove your jewellery when showering and avoid contact with perfumes and lotions.
