Silver and Diamond Signet Ring

Inspired by medieval amulet rings, this is a piece I’ve been wanting to make for a long time, and it is just as mysterious as I’d hoped it would be - an icy-grey diamond captured in an ancient-inspired signet ring.

This small signet is set with a rosecut diamond, which has a beautifully soft, shimmery lustre, quite different to modern faceted stones. The hand-cut rosecut pattern is very historic, dating back to the 1500s and rosecut diamonds are still cut by hand today giving them a unique antique glint which is absolutely made for candlelight.

There’s a fascinating interplay between the physical and the mystical in medieval amulet jewellery. On the one hand, it’s very grounded - all raw textures, simplistic forms, and gemstones intended to heal the body, ward off plague, protect from poison. And at the same time, it is always partially turned to the sublime - magic, faith, spirituality and superstition, all represented and given equal weight, with no lines imposed between the everyday and the eternal. 

This signet ring is your own personal amulet, to wear close, and to bring a little everyday magic.

Signet face approx 7.5mm, shank 1.8mm. Natural, untreated, conflict free grey diamond, 2mm diameter.
