Faithful Swallow Intaglio Ring

Swallow & French Motto Intaglio Ring The ring is cast from a replica of a matrix that’s part of antique French wax seal intaglio sets (see photos). Note all mottos are in reverse so that it would read correctly when pressed in wax. If you see a different matrix you like we are happy to make it for you. Just send us a note. The swallow signifies good fortune, joy, & protection. The French Motto reads “Toujours errante, jamais infidéle” which translates to “Always wandering, never unfaithful” Product Details Style: Intaglio Ring Material: Sterling Silver 0.925 Size: 14×12 (Table of Ring) 2mm (Ring Band) Ring sizes: 3-12 Handcrafting Hours: 2 DELIVERY INFO All VINTAGLIO jewelry is handcrafted one at a time & cast in Dallas, Texas USA & can take up to 1 week to produce (non monogrammed styles). RUSH SHIPPING Rates are available upon request Similar Items Pendant (shown in product photos): JEWELRY CARE To clean your Vintaglio, gently use a jewelry polishing cloth (these can be purchased at fine jewelry stores) or a fine brush with mild dish soap. Never use silver cleaner as it will remove the intentional oxidized patina showing the detailed parts of the piece. Take care when using harsh chemicals, swimming or using a hot tub as it may affect the patina finish. Common items such as perfumes or body lotions may dull the luster of your jewelry, or cause it to tarnish at an accelerated rate. LIFETIME GUARANTEE Please note all of our jewelry comes with our lifetime quality guarantee. See our website for more details www.VintaglioJewelry.com WHO WE ARE At VINTAGLIO we value the craft of jewelry making above all else. We are first & foremost creators. Using hot wax, molten metal, torches, hammers, (and a glass of bourbon) we form one-of-kind 18KT gold & sterling pieces of the highest quality. We are a unique high-end jewelry line that has spent years (and again copious glasses of bourbon) perfecting the wax sealing & casting process to offer you the most stunning wax impression jewelry in the world. But we are much more than just beautiful impressions, we are a “study” in wax. While we love metal, wax is our favorite medium so all of our jewelry is crafted from hand-worked wax. VINTAGLIO strongly believes that the true beauty is achieved through the ancient art of wax sealing so we would NEVER use molds or metal clay craft our jewelry. It is this time honored process that makes us not only the highest quality wax seal jewelry on the market but one of the few that is truly made from sealing wax. Because we believe our original source of gold should be treated like gold, VINTAGLIO uses 50% recycled metal in all our casting. We also source sustainable materials whenever possible. All jewelry is proudly handcrafted one at a time in Dallas, Texas USA. Faithful Swallow Intaglio Ring
