Acrostic is a unique type of jewellery that conveys a secret message through the arrangement of gemstones using the first letter of each stone. It first dates back to the Georgian Era (1714-1830) but it wasn't until the Victorian Era (1837-1901) that it became truly popular. The Victorians were known to be romantics and very sentimental, so this type of jewell was a discreet way to express this. The most famous being the R.E.G.A.R.D.S ring.
 
This ring dates from 1990, during the 1970's & 80's jewellers looked back to the past for inspiration and there was quite a revival for Victorian pieces. This ring was inspired by that time and has hearts on the side of the settings and the shank.
 
A lovely piece for a loved one.
