{"product_id":"shakespeare-sonnet-55-ring-in-argentium-sterling-silver-eternal-love-ring-writers-ring","title":"Shakespeare Sonnet 55 Ring in argentium sterling silver \/ Eternal love ring \/ Writer's ring","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis ring is an artistic response to Shakespeare's Sonnet 55, \"Not marble nor the gilded monuments \/ Of princes shall outlive this powerful rhyme\" (full text below). The ring takes the idea of a monument as its central image. The ring stands on its own square base, and it is supported by two massive pillars over a base of rubble, the remains of a previous civilization. But the whole monument is on fire, and the only object that seems likely to survive is the book, rising unburnt from the flames.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that, with the exception of size 7, the ring is a custom order and will take up to two weeks to ship.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eThe ring is perfect for the writer in your life or as a token of love. Silver is the traditional gift for the 25th wedding anniversary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe ring was made using the ancient technique of lost-wax casting. Lost-wax casting begins with a wax original, which is placed in a specialized mold material. The wax is melted out of the mold, and molten metal is poured in. My cast rings are carved by hand from my own sketches and designs (no 3D printing or other digital tools involved). Entirely hand-carved by me in my Connecticut studio, the wax original for this ring was cast in argentium sterling silver by an independent casting company.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen ordering your ring, choose your ring size and your desired patina (the \"color\" option). The ring can be made with a golden patina, as shown; in a shiny silver finish; or in a traditional black patina with silver highlights. Please message me with any custom requests, such as a matte or brushed finish. \u003cbr\u003e\n***\u003cbr\u003e\nNot marble nor the gilded monuments\u003cbr\u003e\nOf princes shall outlive this powerful rhyme,\u003cbr\u003e\nBut you shall shine more bright in these contents\u003cbr\u003e\nThan unswept stone besmeared with sluttish time.\u003cbr\u003e\nWhen wasteful war shall statues overturn,\u003cbr\u003e\nAnd broils root out the work of masonry,\u003cbr\u003e\nNor Mars his sword nor war’s quick fire shall burn\u003cbr\u003e\nThe living record of your memory.\u003cbr\u003e\n’Gainst death and all oblivious enmity\u003cbr\u003e\nShall you pace forth; your praise shall still find room\u003cbr\u003e\nEven in the eyes of all posterity\u003cbr\u003e\nThat wear this world out to the ending doom.\u003cbr\u003e\n So, till the judgment that yourself arise,\u003cbr\u003e\n You live in this, and dwell in lovers’ eyes. (William Shakespeare, Sonnet 55)\u003cbr\u003e\n***\u003cbr\u003e\nI use only argentium sterling silver in my jewelry. Argentium sterling silver is hypoallergenic. It contains more pure silver than ordinary sterling (93.5% or 94%, vs. a minimum of 92% for other sterling). It contains no nickel. It is very durable, and unlike ordinary sterling silver, it is tarnish-resistant.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Idle Gauds Jewelry and Metals","offers":[{"title":"4 \/
