Description

This exquisite men’s signet ring features hand-carved accents on the top and sides, and the center is surrounded by a ring of bright cut set diamonds. We can make you a ring just like this one, or we can help you adjust the design to add a personal touch. The type of hand carving is very intricate, and it’s carried out by our skilled artisans onsite in our Bellevue, WA location.

Hand Carving

On the top section of this ring, a lion’s head rises up from the flat surface, carved in exquisite detail. The background is textured, and it’s bordered by a smooth, polished rail that frames the entire top section.

The sides of the ring are also hand carved, with one featuring a panther and the other an eagle clutching a snake. These designs both depict powerful animals, but they are in subordinate positions to the lion at the top, which helps bring unity to the design and reinforce the theme of the lion as ruler of the animal kingdom.

While the main images in this ring may be what attracts your attention first, the intricate details don’t end there. Even the fronts of the ring feature a scroll design that runs from top to bottom on both sides, and a decorative beading runs down the inside of this section as well. There is no corner of this ring that hasn’t been carefully and intentionally crafted, and that’s part of what makes it such a special and eye-catching piece.

Diamond Accents

A ring of round bright cut set diamonds runs around the top of the ring, further offsetting the top section and adding a subtle sparkle to the piece. The diamonds stand out just enough from the 14k white gold to give the ring a touch of glamour without being overpowering, and they also help to highlight the special position of the lion.

Customize

Use this design as a starting point for a custom piece.

Discuss the stones, metal, proportions, setting and finish with a designer, online or in our Seattle and Bellevue showrooms. You can bring reference photographs or your own stone for us to assess.

  1. Design and estimate

    The initial design and estimate are free, with no obligation. Your designer discusses the materials, changes and budget with you before you commit.

  2. 3D design review

    After you accept the estimate and make a down payment, we create a 3D CAD model and rendered views. Revisions within the initial design parameters are included; changes to materials or their amounts are re-estimated.

  3. Physical model

    A full-size wax model can be made to review scale, shape and proportions before production. It can be viewed in a showroom or shipped to you.

  4. Approval and production

    The design is approved before production begins. Your designer confirms the schedule, and our jewelers make, set and finish the piece.

Diamond and gemstone selection
We help you choose stones for your custom design, reviewing cut, color, clarity, consistency and fit. Your budget guides these choices; our standards for materials and craftsmanship remain the same.
