Astrology Pluto Ring Silver Virgin Mary
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Virgin Mary Medal Ring Sterling Silver Bronze Crest Pluto Astrology J Dauphin J DAUPHIN "Compassion" in Silver and bronze In times of transformation this ring symbolize Virgin Mary, compassion and love with the sign of Pluto, ruler of transformation and change. If you believe in the spiritual and/or is religious use this ring for protection letting these great forces work for you. Virgin mother, daughter of your son Humbler and higher than any other creature… You are she who so ennobled human nature That nature’s very maker did not disdain To himself be made by you. Virgin Mary is one of the greatest symbols for humility and faith, the perfect mother and the perfect virgin. Catholic artists, responding to the Protestant minimisation of her part in humanity’s salvation, re-emphasised her position as mother of God. She also takes on a growing role of her own in the lives of the faithful, as the supreme intercessor between her son and those who worship him. What is remarkable, across all these depictions, is that Mary almost never gazes at the viewer. Her eyes are invariably downcast, suggesting solemnity, a soul turned inward, and the tragic foreknowledge of her son’s fate. In Roman Mythology, Pluto is known as god of the underworld. Its symbol contains a crescent placed above a cross, and inside the crescent curve, there is a circle. The planet Pluto is known to have powers of transformation and change. Those associated with the planet Pluto are constantly reinventing themselves - and if they fall, they can pick themselves up again. Those influenced by this planet are constantly creating new beginnings in their lives. Pluto's influence is shared by a whole generation. It is a slow-moving planet that is located in the outermost part of our solar system. This planet rules the zodiac sign Scorpio...

14K Rose Gold Victorian Blue Banded Agate Ring
Located in Venice, CA
This is an elegant Victorian era ring, featuring the popular Scottish stone of banded agate. The banded agate is smooth and could be engrave with a personal sign or emblem, potentially making it a signet ring. The oval and smooth banded agate gemstone measures 3/8 by 5/8 of an inch. It is a very dark blue color, and the sides, where one can see the rings of the agate, is a darker black color. The band on the ring is banded also, with a nice texture that enhances the qualities of the stone. The rose gold color is a nice choice to set off the darker and moody gemstone. The ring is a size 4.5 but could be easily resized. Feels great to the touch making this a great everyday ring. The ring remains unmarked but has been acid tested to 14K gold. Weighs 3.65 grams.

Antique and Vintage Signet Rings for Sale on 1stDibs: Shop Gold Signet Rings, Diamond Signet Rings and Other Signet Rings

Traditionally considered a ring for men, a vintage signet ring is a popular gift today for anyone who desires an expressive, timeless piece of jewelry that can feature all manner of engraved motifs, gemstones, specific symbols or monograms.

Whether it's an antique gold signet ring, diamond signet ring or some other classic iteration, signet rings get their name from signus, which means “sign” in Latin.

These rings, which may historically be referred to as “seal rings,” date back thousands of years and were used as a form of signature. Whatever may have been engraved on the ring — a married couple’s initials, a family crest — identified ownership for the purposes of authenticating documents and more when impressed on soft wax. During the Middle Ages, signet rings were symbols of power and prestige and common accessories for nobility. Later, during the 19th century, precious and semiprecious stones such as rubies and diamonds were added to gold signet rings as they took on a more ornate appearance than they had previously. 

In recent years, fashion has been primarily about individuality, and nothing is more personal than a jewel bearing a name or monogram. That is the reason jewelers have revived traditional signet rings, custom-engraving their designs with customers’ preferred words or symbols. Those who prefer the thrill of the hunt have a range of vintage letter charms and pendants to sift through.

And it isn't all about men's signet rings anymore, either — the accessory is for everyone. Princess Diana wore a signet ring that was a gift from Charles before their wedding, and we all know that the royals are top-tier fashion influencers, especially when it comes to rings.

Find vintage diamond signet rings, onyx signet rings and other types of rings on 1stDibs.
