Freeman Jewelry Design combined its love of fantasy with its love of love with a newly commissioned Harry Potter inspired Golden Snitch engagement box.
The stunningly delicate black box contains a necklace reiteration of a golden snitch, a key element in the book's fictional sport Quidditch that allows players to win the match. The necklace can be worn by Harry Potter fanatics as is, but also acts as a vessel, concealing an engagement ring. The ring is only revealed when the circular golden trinket pops open. The piece was designed using 3D printers and is engraved with the phrase "I Open at the Close," a quote which can be customized to say whatever the future fiancee desires.
The book's popularity has a cult-like following and subsequent sub-cultures which formed after its publication allowing for Harry Potter-inspired products like the Golden Snitch engagement box to have a valuable place in this niche market.
