If we were content with this brief description, we'd be missing out on an extraordinary jewel full of surprises! This ring is not a simple ring, it's a multiple ring that moves, transforms, according to a tradition well known to 17th-century astronomers who couldn't do without their armillary sphere, showing the movement of the stars and the sun around the earth. There are several rings. The central one reveals a Latin inscription:
"Lucem Vitae A Caelousque ad centrum Os meum es Universe". If this text is hermetic to some, here's what it means: "Light of my life, From Heaven to the Center, You are my Universe". From the scientific message, we move on to the message of love, for the loved one and also for the most fundamental principles of Nature. It's no longer the earth at the center of the armillary, it's love at the center of a wedding ring! Two other perfectly interlocking rings, striated like a metric system, emerge! These two identical yet different rings refer to the couple. And it doesn't stop there... The outermost, meticulously engraved ring opens in two in the shape of a cross, the indestructible link that leads to union each time the ring closes.
Dreaming of a jewel full of symbolism? Morphée joaillerie brings it to your fingertips!
