Our Maiden's Crest ring is the stuff of dreams! To find a lady's coat of arms is unusual to begin with, but to find one is such pristine condition, and with such fabulous motifs is even rarer! Hailing from England, its centerpiece is a Georgian-era piece of chalcedony which has a lovely pale blue hue in certain lighting. The antique intaglio is hand-carved in painstaking detail, and depicts the shield of an unmarried lady (lozenge-style). Often times an unmarried lady would be given her own seal, but her ‘shield’ would typically be a lozenge or diamond-shaped shield such as this one, denoting she was a woman and thus had not been to battle. At the center of this seal is a Lion, symbolizing Courage; flanked by Ermine borders left and right, symbolizing Dignity; two Acorns representing Strength; bordered by sprays of Roses symbolizing Grace and Beauty; all topped with a luxuriously feminine Bow. The lady for whom this seal was made, would have been considered strong of character, dignity and perseverance, able to resolve situations, as well as a protector of others and someone who was able to give life.

Yes, this ring really packs a ton of meaning into one small, yet precious piece! Set in our Bow setting - to pay homage to the bow on the seal - this ring is sure to check all the boxes on your personal talisman list. Feminine yet fierce on the hand, let it be your signature power ring!

Size 6.5 and sizeable.

Dimensions: Seal is 16mm x 21m, Bow is 12mm at widest point.
