Flickering Flame and Candle Smoke Blue Sapphire & Diamond Ring

I grew up in a house with candles lit after the sun went down. Yes, we had electricity; Mother liked candles, though. She served wine in the evening. She played Johnny Mathis on the 33 1/3 RPM record player with candles flickering. Her candles were white, no drip. Because she liked to see candles flicker, she had candles near open windows. She also celebrated the blowing out of candles to watch the smoke rise. It was a magic moment when it was time to blow out a candle. We would watch the smoke rise. Candle smoke has dimensions and thickness. When caught in air currents, smoke twists and turns, weaves, and wanders.

We also learned about bringing a yellow flame to its perfect blue edge. Yes, you can do this at home. Yellow flame burning, gently blow at the wick, and the flame will shrink to a small blue light. If you’re gentle, you can hold the blue light at the base of the wick for quite a while, and voila, the blue sapphire at the center.

This ring at its left and right sides holds the mystery of candle smoke, with the sides rising with 42 little diamonds set along the weave. It looks awesome by candlelight. Then, there is a big, brilliant blue sapphire at the very center.

I look at this ring and hear Johnny Mathis singing. I see a glass of pink wine and white candles flickering.

This ring is simple. Narrow shank with smoke curls winding their way to the center. Set with an amazing array of 42 tiny diamonds, a round baby blue sapphire is at the center. The precision gem cutting is awesome. On the day your ring arrives, light a white candle in the evening. Look through your old LPs. See if you can find Johnny Mathis. And yes, if you’ve got blush wine, pour a glass. Then, and only then, unwrap your package.
