It was a cooling autumn in the heart of London when I received the message. A quiet text from a family friend. She was a single mother, asking if we could create a ring. Not just for herself, but for her son.
What she sought wasn’t ornament. It was something lasting, a symbol of their bond, their shared faith, and the love that stretched beyond parenthood into legacy.
She wanted a ring that would carry both meaning and blessing. A piece imbued with their beliefs, their hopes, and their story.
Together, we began a journey of symbolism, weaving their Christian faith into a crest they could wear; not just as family, but as a daily reminder of love, grace, and divine protection.
At the center: a rose crowned in reference to Christ — the Son — and the crown of His love. Woven within each crown were seven fish, an ancient Christian symbol of faith and provision, drawn from the miracles of loaves and fishes. Seven, a sacred number of divine completeness.
Floral motifs added softness and grace, while the letters JMJ — Jesus, Mary, Joseph — formed the foundation of the crest: a holy trinity of familial love and spiritual anchoring.
What emerged was not simply a ring, but a heartfelt heirloom. Both a shield and a prayer; forged in silver, worn with faith.
As London cooled into winter, we sent the piece off, with quiet reverence. A wish for warmth, protection, and blessing, for every season of their lives.
