The Sigillum Skull: Hand-Carved Sterling Silver Signet Ring
A modern tribute to a medieval tradition. Originally hand-sculpted in wax and cast in solid sterling silver, this signet ring combines the authority of a historical seal with the raw, anatomical detail of our signature skull.
History in the Making: The word signet originates from the Latin sigillum ("seal"), dating back to the 13th century when such rings were used in place of a signature to authenticate official documents. This piece carries that same sense of weight and importance, featuring a 13mm skull set within a perfectly circular 16mm face.
Artisan Craftsmanship:
The Finish: A high-polish antiqued finish that creates a striking contrast—bright, reflective silver on the raised surfaces and deep, dark shadows within the bone structure.
Solid Construction: Weighing approximately 12.8g, this is a substantial, solid-back ring built for longevity and a comfortable, balanced feel.
Unique Character: Because each ring is finished by hand rather than mass-produced, every piece possesses its own subtle, unique character.
Provenance: Fully hallmarked at the Edinburgh Assay Office for guaranteed metal purity.
