These his and her rings will help couples role-play the sarcastic and banter-filled love story between Princess Leia and Han Solo. With the words "I love you" and "I know" in [Star Wars font](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-wars-collection-2), the sterling silver rings capture one of the most famous movie dialogues of all time -- well at least in Star Wars fan's eyes.

The woman's ring represents Leia featuring an Imperial Cog and a ruby and the man's ring represents Han Solo with the Jedi Symbol and a sapphire. Both rings include the Death Star. For an added cost, the [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arcade-clock) seller SwankMetalsmithing also offers different upgrades including platinum, gold and engraving.

The his and her rings make the perfect Valentine's gift for geeky couples across the galaxy.
