The Game of Thrones rings are inspired by the pet names Daenerys and Drogo had for each other in George R.R. Martin's series 'A Song of Ice and Fire.' Unlike some other pop culture-inspired wedding bands such as at the Chapa-ai ring and the Ringone ring, these symbols of love are actually romantic. One reads 'Moon of my life,' while the other reads, 'My sun and stars.'
Made to order by Los Angeles-based Etsy shop owner Chasing at Starlight, the Game of Thrones rings are made out of aluminum. Conveniently adjustable, the rings can be further personalized with additional stamps upon request. Nevertheless, each ring can only accommodate up to 15 characters.
