Aphrodite is the ancient Greek goddess of love and beauty. Through her starry eyes, golden Aphrodite sees a world full of unabashed love, sparking undeniable connections, passionate encounters, and romances that last a lifetime. No heart can help but succumb to the touch of Aphrodite. She incites delirious desire in new relationships, comfort and deep understanding in old ones, and unites souls in true love with passion, excitement, adoration, respect, support, and tenderness. She brings out the beauty in everything — a sculpted shoulder, a heart stopping profile, the glow of candlelight on tumbling locks of hair, the curve of the small of a woman’s back. Aphrodite’s divinity makes all of the little beautiful things impossible to miss. Deeply in love with someone who did not return her feelings, Sappho wrote her famed hymn to Aphrodite, in which she begs the goddess for relief from her anguish. Even in the throes of heartbreak, followers of Aphrodite know that love is the only true meaning that we all share, and that the wonder and beauty of it all is worth it, every single time. This molten gold ring is a representation of Aphrodite rising from the waves in Botticelli's famed work. She is made from 100% recycled solid 14k gold in both white and yellow. Each piece is handcrafted to order in our NYC studio - please allow 3 weeks for your ring to ship.
