Mizpah Engraved Band Dated 1913

The engraving inside this classic antique wedding band makes it especially sweet: the dedication "E.A.T. to E.L.W. 9-15-13 Mizpah" chased in graceful script. Crafted in solid 14k gold and similar in profile to the modern "comfort fit" with rounded edges that make it easy to wear on a daily basis. 

A concept dating back to biblical times, "Mizpah" refers to a prayer requesting God's protection over loved ones, especially those who were separated for a period of time. The exact biblical reference for the benediction is: “The Lord watch between me and thee when we are absent from one from another".

Perfect as a modern choice for a wedding ring or to complement to a collection of interesting bands in a stack.
