Thank you, Raks.

Yes, it certainly is fascinating to think who might have worn my ring in the past. Was she from a wealthy family? Married or engaged? Was she someone who's partner had worked hard and scraped the money together to give her a beautiful token of his love and affection? What kind of house or apartment did she live in? Did she work, or had she worked, for a living? Did she like fancy clothes and jewellery or was any spare cash spent on her children? Was she a Spiritualist, like a lot of Victorians were, or was she a devout Christian or of some other faith? Who knows, she may even have been a Pagan. Did she have a long and happy life or did she die early or in childbirth?

Whatever, Dan cleansed it before he gave it to me, to banish any possible traces of negative energy.

One thing is certain though, it is very beautiful.

Lots of love,
Catherine. x
