    I adore this ring. To be honest, I'd like to find another one to wear so I stop risking this one.
    There's a story to go with it which makes it special to me. It was handed down to me through four generations and is well over a century old. My great grand mother was the butchers daughter and she was making meat deliveries in Baltimore when she stopped at a wealthy family's house to deliver their meat. Outraged and humiliated to have people seen her at their home, they told her to make all future deliveries to the back door. The next time she delivered to them, their son answered and became smitten with her. It was a beautiful young love and he gave her this ring when he asked her to be his girlfriend.

      Thanks! Heirlooms are wonderful connections to history and it doesn't hurt if they're gorgeous too :) I get compliments on it a lot and I use it to defend sterling jewelry in general. "Silver doesn't last." *holds out ring* "100 years and counting..." ^_^
