Weight: 19.7 gr
L’anello con sigillo del XVIII secolo è realizzato in argento dorato, il gambo è adornato da delle decorazioni e presenta dei segni che contribuiscono ad aumentare il valore simbolico dell’oggetto, testimoniando la sua importanza in epoche passate. Nella parte superiore si scorgono dei blasoni che, indubbiamente, fanno riferimento all’origine nobiliare del committente dell’anello: da una parte si scorge un leone rampante, figura ricorrente negli stemmi e simbolo di valore, dominio, nobile eroismo ma anche di coraggio e magnanimità; al centro si scorgono due lettere sovrapposte, presumibilmente HB; dall’altro lato, invece, si riconosce l’immagine di un gallo, il quale va ad avvalorare il significato di cui è portatore il leone, ovvero il coraggio, sebbene sia altresì emblema della vigilanza. Al centro, nella parte alta, invece, si scorge una corona a cinque punte che indica lo status sociale del proprietario e della sua famiglia.
The 18th century signet ring is made of gilded silver, the stem is adorned with decorations and has signs that contribute to increasing the symbolic value of the object, testifying to its importance in past eras. In the upper part you can see some coats of arms which, undoubtedly, refer to the noble origin of the person who commissioned the ring: on one side you can see a rampant lion, a recurring figure in the coats of arms and a symbol of value, dominion, noble heroism but also of courage and magnanimity; in the center you can see two overlapping letters, presumably HB; on the other side, however, you can recognize the image of a rooster which confirms the meaning of which the lion is the bearer, namely courage, although it is also an emblem of vigilance. I In the centre, in the upper part, however, you can see a five-pointed crown which indicates the social status of the owner and his family.
Resizing is available.
