Our 18K snake ring is studded with a round diamond on its head and is crafted of a rich yellow gold. The richness of the gold-work is a feature of this ring. Note how the goldsmith cleverly weaved the gold tail so it comes up just so around the snake's head. The snake's body is delicately incised to suggest the texture of snakeskin. The stylized eyes set in short cylinders of gold; each house a small circular diamond, securely embedded within. Snake rings became popular in England when Quee...

We love this 15K double snake ring cleverly set with two sparkling round diamond gemstones set securely in a carved bordered diamond shape on the snake's head. Note the curves on the intertwined snake, the intricate way the gold bands weave together when viewed even from the back, the way the snake's tail curves just so around the neck, the gold work hinting at the rough texture of the snake's skin. This ring is all about the details. The ring is a US size 7 ½, resizeable.

Bloodstone signet ring of polished 18 carat gold with an arm embowed to the dexter and grasping a sword. The embowed arm is a heraldic symbol denoting a person with leadership qualities, and the sword is an ancient symbol of honor in battle. The dexter is a heraldic term referring to the right and left sides of a shield. As the shield is assumed to be held by the viewer, the dexter side faces the viewer's left. We love all signet rings with heraldic images and especially when the stone u...

We love this bloodstone Chalcedony signet ring for its unusual decorative shield shape, a copy of a decorative shield that was popular in the 19th century. The shape of this escutcheon (another name for shield) is called "two engrailed top" and refers to the top of the shield with its double scalloped design. The double scallop line references a river or an ocean. The term "engrailed" comes from the Old French word graal, meaning "grail" (cup or chalice). Shield shapes are derived from shie...
