One for her and h*r him. wading rings, through the • oe , have varied in size and . riei m the elabfjrate nature ? t-^ir idornment. Even before Christian times, inscriptions and vm^clie ^iesigns indicated their special purpose. “In thee my '"hoice do I rejoice!’ was a fav cite motto in Shakespeare’s day. H pfljhaps, however, we instinc tively feel that there is more honest sentiment in simplicity than^n ostentation. At least, in the tfth Century, Queen Mary of Engird thought this to be true. Befujse desperation drove her on a b®er course in history, she set t&e pace — in wedding rings — for future generations who prefefr the thin, gold band. For Iter iaarriage to Philip n ofSp4in, it ifijsaid that she .. . 'chose to wedded with a plain hoop of |}ld like other maidens' Djfiard Boland, Jeweler is very iroi^ of their excellent selection * itching ring sets.
