Dark Jewelry For Divorcées

Gisele Ganne Divorce Jewelry

London jewelry designer Gisèle Ganne has created a line of divorce jewelry, because people who are giddy with love shouldn’t be the only ones allowed to wear a nice-looking ring. “I use union and marriage symbols and subvert them to show the inevitability of the breakup, but also show that from these ashes may raise new life,” Ganne writes on her website. This, along with her reminder that 42 percent of U.K. marriages end in divorce, kind of depresses us. If breakups are inevitable, then what’s the point in starting a new relationship? But wearing her eerie jewelry, which Edgar Allan Poe would have appreciated, the next time we split up with someone could be a good consolation prize to go along with a broken heart.

Those are beautiful. I’m not so into the gold, but her stuff is gorgeous. Almost worth divorcing over.

I believe I saw a pair of gold(er,brass) knuckle rings, which I find simultaneously subversive, strangely appropriate and hilarious. Would wear her jewelry now and I have no intentions of marrying, she seems to think in the similar vein about marriage (inevitable divorce) as I do.
