Description from the seller
Attention: due to customs regulations we can only ship inside the European Union. Please ensure you have a valid EU shipping address before placing a bid.
Medieval Crusaders era, bronze Knight Templar ring with a lozenge bezel and engraved cross Pattée. Plain ring band.
-> The cross pattée or Templar cross has arms that are narrow at the centre and are flaring in a curved or straight line to the ends.
-> The Templars, founded in the early 12th century, adopted the cross pattée as part of their insignia. It symbolized their commitment to the Christian faith and their mission to protect pilgrims traveling to the Holy Land.
Outside diameter: ± 18,7 mm
Inside diameter: ± 14 – 14,3 mm
Bezel: ± 12,7 x 8,8 mm
Condition: good solid condition, small ring size, dark smooth patina. Signs of wear consistent with age and use.
Certificate of Authenticity: available upon request (pdf-format).
-> The cross pattée is associated with a Crusader order, the Knights Templar, though it was not used consistently. The Templars adopted a red cross on their white robes in 1147, but there was no specific style designated, and different Templars used different versions of cross.
The Teutonic Knights are also associated with this type of cross.
During the first centuries AD, Christian symbols were worshipped and worn in secret. After Christianity was adopted as an official religion (380 AD) the cross became a prominent symbol. It provided comfort and piece in times of troubles, particularly during the Crusades and during the many pandemics that swept over Europe.
To the present day Christians wear crosses and sacred pendants close to their hearts as tangible signs of their faith and Gods presence in their lives.
