Piece of the Week: Robinson Pelham’s ‘Eye Die 4 U’ Signet
The ring emotes a gothic sensibility through a modern vernacular.
Jewelry has a rich history when it comes to the macabre and the creepy.
Mourning jewelry, for instance, that openly paid tribute to deceased loved ones through enamel writings, depictions of skeletons, or locks of hair from the departed, was a staple of the Georgian and Victorian eras.
Memento mori styles, so called for the Latin phrase meaning “remember you must die,” may have fallen out of favor in today’s youth-obsessed culture, but now and again, a brand puts its own spin on the dark theme.
Leave it to the decidedly sunny and color-obsessed Robinson Pelham to have a very tongue-in-cheek and of-the-moment riff on the theme.
The new “Eye Die 4 U” signet ring, unveiled at Couture 2023 commemorates the hyperbolic phrase in four fancy-shaped diamonds.
Diamonds shaped as an eye, a coffin, the number four, and letter “U” are symbols delivering the over-the-top declaration of allegiance.
The 18-karat gold ring with a total 0.9 carats of white and black diamonds is sure to bring a smile to even the most jaded soul.
Priced at approximately $14,187 per current exchange rates, it’s available on the Robinson Pelham website.
