There's such a special feeling in finding a preloved piece that already has letters on it that are meaningful to you, that we play pretty fast and loose - maybe it's the first or last initials of you and your lover, or your own in another order, or the initials of a loved one: no matter what, it will feel sentimental every time it catches your eye. This lovely antique ring was manufactured by Newark, NJ jewelers Allsopp Bros, established in 1885 and a favourite of the Art Deco era.

Good antique condition, with thinning to back of band. Face engraved W, but it could certainly pass as an M if you prefer.
