History of signet rings.
Over 4000 years ago Egyptians used signet rings to declare their social status or family. The face featured distinctive hieroglyphs carved deeply into the metal, containing identifying information. Documents were sealed and signed by pressing the ring's carved surface into soft wax.
Seal your heritage
The art of seal engraving by hand is as amazing as it looks, cutting a motif or crest in reverse so the seal shows as a legible cypher.
