A popular style in the 16th and 17th centuries, it was often used as a betrothal ring. Historically Martin Luther wed his bride Catherine Bora with a gimmal ring. It is said that Henry III of England was given a gimmal ring adorned with 2 emeralds and a ruby. In the 1600s, gimmal rings began to evolve into 2 hands featuring a hidden heart. Three rings in one, when pulled apart you see the heart.
