History: Poesy rings were popular
throughout Europe in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, most particularly
in England and France with French and Latin Inscriptions being the most
numerous. The frequent mention of poesy rings in Shakespeare's plays,
attests to their popularity in 16th century England. Deux Ames un Coeur in
English means: Two Souls One Heart, an elegant phrasing of the essence of
betrothal. The sentiment is taken from a 16th century ring, but has been
redesigned as a contemporary poesy ring with tiny rounded capitals on a simple
modern band. The ring is therefore a twenty-first century interpretation
of an ancient tradition. Hand-cast by the lost wax
