Medieval gold iconographic signet ring. The hoop has a moulded ropework pattern divided by a circumferential beaded line. The line is bifurcated at the shoulders before framing the bezel in a manner which echoes the clawed setting of contemporary gem-set rings. The shoulders are sub-triangular in section and each has a pair arched panels displaying iconographic engravings. The four panels depict Saint Michael, Saint Christopher, the Holy Trinity and Madonna & Child. The raised circular bezel is deeply engraved with the figure of a facing lion and the blackletter motto either side appears to read 'du:vie', French for 'of life', all within a circular beaded border.
