In 2014, Fie Isolde’s future husband wrote her a 28th birthday card that, she said, was “full of dreams about all the things we were going to do.”
“When I got the card,” the Danish jewelry designer recalled last month during a video interview from her boutique in the Sycamore neighborhood of Los Angeles, “my first thought was actually my fear: One day, this ink will be gone.”
So in 2020, she had the words microscopically engraved on the 14-karat gold ring that she now wears on her right pinkie.
“You can’t read it with the naked eye, only with a loupe,” Ms. Isolde said, referring to the simple magnification eyepiece used in many industries. “People see it as small black lines or etchings.”
