The Romantic Reason behind Toi et Moi Ring

What is Toi et Moi Ring?

The elegant Toi et Moi ring has been one of the most romantic symbols in the jewelry world for several centuries. We tell you why jewelry with two stones is chosen for an engagement and a declaration of love. 

History decided Toi et Moi Ring is why Popular?

Toi et Moi Ring Known As "You and Me":

The “You and Me” ring is characterized by its two intertwined stones. This lovely model can be mounted with precious or semi-precious stones. This ring is very popular for engagements because of the symbolism it conveys.

This style became popular during the time of Napoleon Bonaparte when he gave Joséphine de Beauharnais a lovely "Toi et Moi" engagement ring. This was composed of sapphire and a diamond, pear cut. This model was trendy at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. Nowadays, this ring remains very popular for any type of occasion: engagement, anniversary, or special occasion.

Actual Meaning Of Toi et Moi Ring

The most significant feature of the Toi et Moi style, which distinguishes these products from classic rings, is the presence of not one, but two central stones at once. 

Often this pair of precious inserts is almost identical - they repeat each other in size and shape. Stones, as a rule, are arranged symmetrically and form a single harmonious design. Sometimes the ring can be additionally adorned with a scattering of small stones around the central inlays.

However, modern jewelers do not always take the classic as a basis. Now the stones on the product come in a variety of sizes - not necessarily equal. Designers also use the technique of contrast and combine stones of different shades.

In addition, the inserts can be located at some distance from each other, for example, as in open ring models. Some jewelry houses decorate Toi et Moi rings with decorative elements - Flowers, Swirls, Animal images.

Offering a jewel to the person you love is a tradition that has existed and has been perpetuated since the dawn of time. In this regard, the engagement ring symbolizes the desire for union between two people who want to commit to each other. This jewel is offered by the groom to his beloved as a token of love and a promise of a future together.

The engagement ring has a story! It is worn on the ring finger of the left hand for the good reason that at the time of Greek and Egyptian Antiquity, the ancients believed that this finger was the only one to have a vein directly connected to the heart, which earned the name "vein of love". And that's why reason, this ring is called similar to an Engagement ring or Promise Ring. Get more information about what the Promise Ring or Promise Ring Meaning.
