What is a crest ring?
A crest ring, also known as a signet ring, was traditionally a significant accessory for affluent and powerful men. It is distinguished from ordinary rings by an engraved or raised symbol, a series of words or characters, or image on the ring's top half that was representative of the owner in some way.
