Ring size: 7

A fragment of the heavens, and the oldest emblem of a faithful heart.

The Firmament is a round blue sapphire held in gold, with small clear stones scattered down each shoulder of the band like stars trailing across the evening sky.

A ceremonial ring, made to order in gold vermeil over solid sterling silver, set with a blue sapphire centre and moissanite accents.
Historical Context

The firmament. From the Latin firmamentum, the dome of heaven held up above the world. Ancient cosmologists imagined it as a fixed vault studded with stars. In Hebrew, raqia, the hammered-out sky.

Sailors used it to navigate. Astronomers tried to map it. Lovers used it as the largest thing they could point to. The Firmament takes a single point of that ancient sky and brings it to the finger.
Symbolic Meaning

The deep blue is the night sky pulled close. To wear it is to keep some certainty about where you are pointed.

The orientation point that holds when everything else moves.
Wearers Intention

For those who navigate by what is steady. For the ones who choose their north star deliberately and keep returning to it.

For people whose work is to be the fixed point others orient by.
Care Guide

Remove before sleep, exercise, and showering.

For the gold:
Clean with warm water, mild soap, and a soft cloth.

For the sapphire:
Sapphire is durable. The six-prong claw setting is the more vulnerable part. Avoid knocking the stone against hard surfaces.

General:
Store flat in a soft pouch. The Firmament is built for a lifetime, with care.
