If you didn't think the world (art more specifically) could get any more far-fetched then this is certainly something to satisfy these beliefs.
The girls and I were discussing the 'perfect' engagement ring yesterday. No, we aren't in a rush to get hitched anytime soon but when the words 'Tiffany' and 'Legacy' are thrust into the context of such a conversation then a girl can dream can't she? But far beyond the £8,000 price tag of the Tiffany sparkler, it got me thinking about rings and what they symbolise. Of course the wedding band is an unbroken, infinite symbol of everlasting love (I'm not soppy honest) but what happens, god forbid, if everlasting love isn't...well...everlasting?
Gisele Ganne's Divorce ring. Thats what.
No... she's not a pesimist, nor a man hating singleton, but a Royal college of Art graduate whos jewellery collection nods to Victorian Mourning Jewellery and the Macabre Motif of the time. However, Ganne's designs (skulls, forget-me-nots and ivy) are a modern commentary on today's divorce rates (although to look at them you really wouldn't know!)
Beautifully ornate and perfectly classic (with what could be described as a gothic twist) divorcees should stick two fingers up to the wedding ring (or perhaps 4 in this case...this ring goes over all four fingers!) and embrace Ganne's divorce rings.
And who said divorce had to get ugly....
