It's incredible sentiment and meaning, where the diamonds represent the stars in the sky, and the blue represents the night sky. Marie Antoinette was known to have worn her Bague au Firmament ring everyday, and it quickly became very fashionable in the late 18th to early 19th century.

In the picture gallery you can see a painting of Marie Antoinette with her children, c.1785, painted by Adolf Ulrik Wertmüller - In the painting, she is seen wearing her cherished 'Bague au Firmament' ring.

The diamonds are foiled and closed back.

The ring face measures 15mm x 38mm height, and is a US 6.5 and sizable. It weighs 13.56 grams.

Important about Sizing
As it is a medium width band ring at 5.2mm in height, it will fit slightly tighter than a regular width band ring. We recommend to go half a size up your usual size. This ring is a US 6.5 but will fit like a US 6.

Note: Please note that as the diamonds are foiled, it is advisable that the piece does not get wet or exposed to water. It can be gently cleaned by wiping it down with a wrung out damp cloth.
