The slow speech could be remedied by fast speed, but not the cringe, "sacrilege" feeling of handling the ring and then putting on an ancient relic... devastating. But... that's business (interest in profit over interest and intuition on handling an item of mystique). "Hey, found an artifact of incredible significance and reverence... what ya want to do?" "I know... let's fondle it and pass it around and put it on!" "Sounds good! Sure glad I'm an educated person...." That's about right corporate mentality.
It made its way back to France! Thank you monsieur de Villiers!
Everytime I see this ring someone is handling it with no gloves. It drives me nuts.

Oh hey! It’s Tim from Royal upstairs downstairs!
I am curious what size that ring is.
It is a size 8, I do believe. 18.25mm inner diameter if I remember correctly. And I believe it is recorded that she wore it on her left index finger.
