In preparation for JC Malick‘s proposal to Lisa Hertz at the Manhattan Island Marathon Swim, he designed a unique ring.

“The ring Lisa always had in mind was an aquamarine, a gemstone that symbolizes the aqua color of the ocean and because of the sea values, it invokes including protecting those who travel by, over, or near water and opens the channels of clear and heartfelt communication.

The ring was designed by a local jeweler, Bernie’s and Sons, in St. Pete where we both live on the Tampa Bay on a wrap around dolphin band.”

Story of the proposal and swim are posted here.
