Solange Azagury-Partridge Ruby and 18k Gold Two Finger Heart Ring, 2002
By Solange Azagury-Partridge
Located in New York, NY
A cabochon ruby and 18 karat yellow gold double finger ring, by Solange Azagury-Partridge, 2002. This is an unforgettable ring, very rarely available, and surprisingly easy to wear. While Solange chose to call it a "Broken Heart" ring, we call it our "Never Apart" heart ring for the way the two halves of the heart fit together.
The two parts consist of two sizes, a size 7 and a size 5.5 which fit readily together. Stamped SA-P, London Hallmarks for 750 and date letter 'C' for 2002. It has a hidden engraving.
