School Rings and other Jewelry Mementos

[solange]

Do we have a thread that features school and commemorative jewelry?

 

[Junkenpo]

Not to my knowledge... do you have any to share? This thread will do nicely.

My mother has her high school or college ring, but it was a way bigger deal to graduate in her day with her disadvantages. I'll go see if I can get a picture the next time I visit.

I still have my HS and college rings. I don't wear them anymore but I just cant part with them.. Gosh, my college ring was well over $600 back in 1997.. I'll post pics

Here's my ring from college. I attended a women's college and our ring, like our campus, was fairly unique.
I was unusual in my choice of seed park set against white gold. The visiting jeweler tried to get me to change my mind. I'm glad I didn't.

Lol. Stupid auto correct.
*seed pearl

That is lovely and so unique!

I had a lovely white gold class ring but a boyfriend stole and pawned it.

Thank you!
What a *grumble, grumble* he was. I'm sorry.

Wow, that is amazing! Love it! Are those four lions?

 

[Prada Prince]

Yes it's the four lions as part of the University of Cambridge's coat of arms.

I always wanted a ring but I don't like the traditional class rings.
This though, is so unique... the seed pearl makes it look even more appealing. It has a victorian mixed with a slight gothic feeling. Really nice.

Here's a pic of my class ring, I got it after my 6 month exchange at Clarkson University. Class rings aren't a thing here in Australia so I thought this would be the perfect momento of my time at an American uni.



I don't wear it too often anymore, I normally wear my sapphire ring and I feel like I look overdone with more than 1 ring.

Design twins! I don't wear mine anymore, but I have kept it....can't believe they're still making this design, it's (yikes!) over 20 years old! I had engravings on both sides and my initials inside the ring, too.
