Rings and allergies

Attempt to draw a hand

On February I noticed the weather was getting warmer (yay!) and it was time to rescue my beloved rings and say goodbye to my gloves (athough it's March and I still wear them sometimes). Well after having a look at them I thought it was time to buy at least a new one, as I haven't added any to my collection since...mmm... maybe 3 or 4 years ago!! I have to say I always find myself spending a little fortune on a ring because I'm allergic to any cheap metal, so it has to be silver, gold plated, white gold or whatever is expensive!
It has taken me weeks to find one that has a big stone (but lets me move my fingers, very important) and that doesn't clash too much with my other rings. I found it in Ottoman Hands, in Topshop Oxford Street. It's handmade with semi precious stones and in gold plated bronze. And it looks Egyptian or something old. Good.
