A bold and characterful vintage 9ct gold signet ring, featuring a finely engraved intaglio design of a lion rampant above the Welsh motto “Di ofn o'i ymffrost” (“Fearless in his pride”). The carving is crisp and expressive, giving the piece a strong heraldic presence and a deep sense of tradition and identity.
Crafted in solid 9ct gold, the ring has a substantial weight and a classic signet form, offering both comfort and durability. The proud lion motif paired with the authentic Welsh inscription makes this a particularly distinctive and meaningful piece.
A wonderful example of mid-20th century jewellery, rich in symbolism and timeless appeal.
