‘The silver scroll ring Mother made herself, with her own Inverell parti sapphire – re-made by Barbara in a similar style’

Margaret Myers has told us much about her dear Mother – Ethel Roe and we were all ears. Ethel made two rings, one each for her daughters when she started silversmithing at 90 years old. There is a hoot of a story behind the sapphire find also but I simply can’t make that public. Bob and Margaret are friends from the Queensland Chapter of the AGHS but really we have so much more in common and now we are sharing and bringing new objects of desire and memory into the world.
