I purchased this wee beautiful ring on the Isle of Iona when my love and I visited Scotland a number of years ago.  Probably one of my favourite places to visit that trip, although honestly?  I fell in love with all of Scotland so it’s really hard to pick one favourite place.  Anyway, I had wanted to get a ring there as a memory of a very beautiful spiritual day so was trying different ones on in the shop.  For some reason I put the ring on the index finger of my right hand and because my hands were a bit swollen due to the heat and okay maybe the wine I’d had with lunch I couldn’t get it off!  I tried and tried, though really…not too hard, as I’d grown rather fond of it, so I just had to buy it!

Scotland just didn’t want to let go of me…
