Medieval, Crusaders Era Silver Rare Ring – Engraved Geometric Insignia (No reserve price)

A fine and elegant medieval silver seal ring, beautifully crafted and preserved, featuring a distinctly carved geometric emblem on its oval bezel. The stylised linear design—typical of medieval personal seals—would have been used to stamp wax, marking ownership or authorising correspondence. The bezel is framed by subtle incised borders, while the shoulders of the ring display decorative radiating and chevron motifs, adding depth and texture to the design. The band itself is slender and gracefully formed, bearing the natural wear and patina expected from a ring worn centuries ago. This type of silver ring was commonly worn by merchants, scribes, and travellers of the High to Late Middle Ages, serving both as jewellery and as a practical personal identifier. Material: Silver Date: 12th–14th century A.D. Origin: Europe Condition: Very good for age, complete and stable. Minor surface wear, attractive patina, bezel engraving still crisp and fully legible. Size: 18mm
