A classic antique signet ring created in 9 carat gold and set with an oval sardonyx stone, prized for its layered tone. The stone has been hand engraved with the initials “P.B.” in a neat, subtle Gothic script, lending the piece a personal character.

Sardonyx was long favoured for signet rings due to its durability and crisp engraving qualities, making it ideal for both wear and practical sealing. The restrained lettering and warm gold setting give the ring a timeless, understated appeal.

Simple and beautifully made, this ring is a wonderful example of antique personal jewellery. A wearable mark of identity and history as beautifully as it was over 130 years ago.
