The Vintage 9ct Gold Griffin Signet Ring
Couldn't load pickup availability
This fantastic, heavy signet ring is a beautiful piece with a detailed engraving of a griffin on its head. The symbol of the griffin represents a creature with the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle, combining the strengths of both animals. Historically, it symbolised power, vigilance, and the protection of treasure, appearing in ancient Persian, Greek, and medieval European art as a guardian figure. The head of the ring is oval-shaped with broad shoulders, leading to a plain yellow gold band.
This ring, circa the late 20th century, is fully hallmarked by The Assay Office of Birmingham for 9ct gold, pre-1974.
