Jewelry tells stories — of love, of history, of identity. Among the many iconic styles, few have the staying power and emotional depth of the Toi et Moi ring. Meaning “You and Me” in French, the design traditionally features two stones set side by side — a symbolic union of two souls, distinct yet forever connected.
From its romantic 18th-century origins to its current renaissance on the fingers of celebrities and modern romantics, the Toi et Moi ring has evolved from classic elegance to contemporary cool. At KRK Jewels, we honor this transformation by blending timeless craftsmanship with bold, personal design.
Let’s explore how this beloved style has journeyed through time — and why it’s more meaningful than ever.
The Origins: A Romantic Legacy
The Toi et Moi ring first captured hearts in 1796 when Napoleon Bonaparte gifted Joséphine de Beauharnais a sapphire and diamond ring in this now-iconic style. The two gemstones, set side by side, represented the couple themselves — distinct in personality and origin, but brought together by love.
This piece became an emblem of romantic unity, and for generations, Toi et Moi rings remained a favorite among European nobility and sentimental lovers.
