Game of Thrones Wedding Rings
As season 5 Game of Thrones unfolds on our televisions, we are sharing here one of our recent commissions. A pair of engraved wedding rings inspired by the popular fantasy series, “Game of Thrones,” back for another series.
The series is an adaptation of A Song of Ice and Fire, George R. R. Martin’s series of fantasy novels, the first of which is titled A Game of Thrones.
If you have not yet seen this series, you are truly missing out. Fans will back me up here. (Do this at the end of the post please!)
Adding a line from Game of Thrones to your wedding rings
One of the most memorable lines from the series derives from the relationship between Daenerys Targaryen (played by Emilia Clarke) and Khal Drogo (played by Jason Momoa), the leader of the nomadic Dothraki.
Just Google the following words and see what I mean…..
Drogo
“Jalan Atthirari Anni” (Moon of My Life, in Dothraki)
Daenerys
“Shekh Ma Shieraki Anni“ (My Sun and Stars, in Dothraki)
The wording appears beautifully simple. The text could almost be from a page of the book. The rings were purposefully styled in this way.
Remember – you can engrave your Game of Thrones wedding rings in any font!
Before we engraved each ring, we selected plain D shaped wedding rings, mirror polished. The lack of additional detail added a very simple, uncluttered feel. The typeface chosen was a rustic, distressed typewriter font. There are so many wonderful sources of inspiration and fonts. Each concept provides a truly unique way to customise a pair of wedding rings.
We know that the best engravings are simple engravings. Our advice would be to spend a little time writing down ideas. Once you have the words, consider the font. Choose a clear typeface. A letter style that emphasises the inscription. We work with a diverse selection of fonts and we find that everyone has a favourite. (Please note: I confess to being a true font-nerd at times!)
I photographed both of the rings above, once the rings had been finally polished. To note the width of each ring, they measure 8mm. across. The wording has been kept purposefully small. This avoided overpowering the rings. Owing to the variable size of the text, smaller ring widths can be engraved across many of the regular ring styles. You need only to contact us for advice on alternative designs.
