The Swivel Ring design was originally created by the Egyptians as a ceremonial piece of jewellery that provided the means to produce a signature. The swivel action allowed the motif to rotate, the signature was carved on the base of the motif & when pressed into hot sealing wax produced a seal.
Robert adapted the concept in 1975 to produce a very distinctive setting for several of his motifs. The swivel concept also works well with a solitaire diamond. The design is strong, the square shaped shank is comfortable between the fingers & encourages the diamond to sit in the correct position.
The Swivel design is a favourite with Robert's clients.
