My mother fell in love with a symbol on a truck mudflap in Peru. She drew it in her journal.

My dad carved it out of wax and melted a bunch of old dimes down, then used clay for the investment. He made two - one for her, one for him.

They're pretty cool.

Me? I got my wife an Alexandrite from the russian Mafiya; she had a mokume game one made for me out of iron and gold. When people ask me where I got it I tell them I mugged a couple hobbits on their way to Mordor.

I feel like the story in the symbols is great. The Russian Mafiya and mugging hobbits and a sketch in a journal are far superior to a large corporation made for tbhe purpose of creating something for the sole purpose of marriage.
