Sub Rosa Black Rose Poison Ring

Sub rosa, under the rose, the old phrase for secrets kept in dangerous company. The Romans hung roses above their council tables as a reminder that what was spoken there stayed there. This ring takes that history and makes it wearable.

Whether that compartment holds a folded note, a sliver of something sentimental, or something the Borgias would recognise, is entirely your business. It's the kind of gothic jewellery that rewards the people who notice details, and unsettles everyone else. Sits perfectly in the dark aesthetic space between Victorian mourning jewellery and pure theatre.

Pewter construction with black resin rose. Rotating secret compartment mechanism. Available in size L.
