ring redux redux

You may recall my recent ring escapades where I ended up buying two. Well three actually (one will go to a DD as a gift).

I bought this Italian ring, but I wanted something a bit more substantial and I wanted custom engraving. It is reminiscent of my first wedding band (which was two gold rolling rings with a third pave), without being identical (the first was lost). It felt like an homage to the original without the disappointment of buying something twice.

It says: A te affido il mio amore, or, "I entrust my love to you."


So i finally picked up the custom ring I had made. They wanted me to try it to confirm size before we engraved it. Very happy with it



I want the simple block style of the original engraving, so we will copy that. However, in the original, the engraving goes about 60% of the way around. We are choosing engraving that will go all the way around. It is not my goal that it always be readable when I look at my hand ... i know what it says ... I just like the look of engraved text.I also like the fact that, since the ring moves, it will look different at different times.

We need "spacers" between the blocks of text. These are two ChatGPT came up with. I don't love either but I lean toward the lines. (the mockup is not what we are engraving, it is just illustrative). Any other ideas?
