A striking and tactile vintage signet ring, created in solid 18 carat gold. Substantial in weight on the hand, this piece carries the kind of gravitas that only true gold with age can give.

The face of the ring is engraved with a rare and evocative motif: from a heart emerges a hand holding a sword. A symbol layered with history and meaning – courage, loyalty, honour, and the triumph of spirit over adversity. These timeless themes have made such imagery highly sought after among collectors of antique jewellery and those who appreciate jewellery with narrative power. 

The ring’s bold form and deep engraving make it not only a wearable jewel but also a conversation piece, steeped in symbolism and character. Its vintage patina enhances the tactile quality, reminding us that this is not just an ornament, but a piece of history carried forward.
