"Toi et moi" is French for "you and me". This ring is my take on the classic toi et moi ring (that traces back to the 17th century) with two gemstones that represent lovers side by side. This pictured ready to ship ring contains vintage diamonds (Old Euro cut; 0.79 total carats; VVS2/J color).
The Nightingale name comes from one of the most beloved birds in the world, and its symbolism has significant meaning for many people. Therefore, the name "Nightingale" symbolizes love and a strong connection to nature.
This ring was hand-carved and molded so that we can create additional rings. Details are done in the wax and in the 14k gold. The low bezel settings are hand-engraved and inset with milgrain details (applied by hand after the stones are set). A trailing of organic leaves make this band perfect for romantics and nature wanderers alike.

Please note: While every effort is made to photograph the items to be an accurate representation, photography and computer monitors have limitations and differences. These images were taken with a Canon DSLR and macro lens (this shows much more detail than the eye can see). Colors and brightness may vary on different devices. I believe these pieces look so much prettier in person when held in the hand and admired by the eye (I've also been told this many times by Knot & Splice customers). I hope you're delighted when you receive your special piece.
