Armorial rings: Historical jewellery with tradition
The long tradition of heraldic and signet rings makes wearing this type of jewellery so special. Not only since the time of aristocratic rule in Central Europe have coat of arms rings been among the best known ways of showing that you belong to a particular family. Already 2000 years B.C. people in Egypt wore such rings, which were often decorated with the scarab beetle. Later, coats of arms of the noble families and finally also of the middle-class families lined these pieces of jewellery, which were not reserved for the upper social classes only because of the price. As a rule, the wearers of rings with coats of arms were men, who wanted to use them to express, among other things, membership of the family and later their national pride. For this reason coat of arms rings were worn in such a way that they were easily readable for other people.
While Ringe with family coats of arms are still reserved in many countries today for those persons who belong to these families, seal rings may generally be worn by all people. Besides conventional coats of arms, logos or fantasy symbols can also be found on the jewellery. In North America they are less popular with families, but many schools have their own rings with coats of arms, which are proudly worn by many students. Several sports teams in the USA also have their own rings engraved, which serve as souvenirs. A well-known example, based on the historical signet rings, is the piece of jewellery given to members of the winning team of the annual NFL Super Bowl.
Striking and elegant
It is particularly remarkable that the coat of arms is set into the large plate of the ring in mirror image. This is primarily due to the history of the jewellery. They were originally used to seal documents. Although rings with coats of arms for gentlemen have been used for centuries only to symbolize membership of a family or a noble family, this tradition has been maintained until today.
coat of arms rings usually consist of gold, silver, copper or bronze. But cheaper materials and alloys are also common. In our shop you will only find rings with a high gold or silver content in various shades. This offers a particularly noble appearance, which is caused by an unmistakable shine. Most signet rings do without extraordinary decorations. Rather, the plate on which the coat of arms will be engraved afterwards should be in the foreground. However, such rings are certainly not regarded as reserved. Rings decorated with coats of arms are therefore not considered to be ordinary fashion accessories, but serve as a real status symbol that emphasizes the chosen appearance. Wearers of a heraldic ring have charisma, pride and elegance and can show off these characteristics particularly well with their gold or silver jewellery.
Coat of arms and signet rings for engagement and wedding
Of course, rings with plates intended for coats of arms and other engravings also work as ideal gifts. Classic and still the best events for giving rings as gifts are the engagement and the wedding. A heraldic ring is by no means an exceptional piece of jewellery for the exchange during the wedding ceremony, although it does radiate something special. For example, these rings can be seen as an admission ticket to join the family if they are decorated with an engraving of the family coat of arms. But also completely individual engravings, for example with the date of the wedding or the initials of the lovers are possible. There are no limits to the imagination here either.
Long lasting like the waistband of the marriage itself are the rings from the MUAU range. The rings for men made of gold and silver have a high percentage of precious metal. At the same time, however, they are considered stable and resistant due to their alloys. The signet rings were forged to the highest standards. With the right care, the gold and silver rings are in the best condition even after many years and are therefore a good investment from an economic point of view.
Large selection with high degrees of purityGold is not equal to gold. In our online shop you will therefore find a wide variety of rings made of Gold, which stand for elegance and can be combined with numerous outfits. The actual golden colour does not actually possess every gold alloy. So this is actually reserved for yellow gold. Jewellery in this shade is particularly sought after and is the classic par excellence.
yellow gold is an alloy of pure gold, silver and copper. Such alloys are not only responsible for the characteristic colour. For example, pure gold is considered to be much too soft and brittle, which would make it unsuitable for wearing on the finger. The other metals in the alloy guarantee the necessary stability. By the number in the name you can always tell how high the gold content in the piece of jewellery is. "Yellow gold 750", for example, consists of 75 percent pure gold, while the rest is distributed among the additional metals in the alloy. In many countries, a proportion of 33.3 percent, or the equivalent of 8 carats, is regarded as the minimum content of pure gold within an alloy so that the piece of jewellery can be called gold jewellery.
However, white gold is also a popular alloy for heraldic and signet rings. Besides gold, it consists of silver and palladium. In some cases, however, silver is not used because palladium can also provide the desired colour tone. White gold is therefore not only visually similar to silver, but owes its special colour to this metal. However, white gold still has some advantages over silver. Due to the missing possibility of oxidation the more expensive white gold is therefore more durable.
Silver coat of arms rings are considered an alternative and are considerably cheaper due to the lower material price, but are no less elegant and impressive. The signet rings made of Silver from our assortment achieve a particularly high degree of purity. Decorated with the matching coat of arms, you will receive a high-quality piece of jewellery with a rarity value. You can combine it with your favourite outfits, as rings are the ideal piece of jewellery for numerous occasions. They are considered a classic with tradition, which is perfectly suited as a fashion accessory, optical statement or gift.
