This signet ring is cast in lead-free pewter. The ring size when cast is 6. The sealing image is an alembic.
As used in chemistry and historically in alchemy for distillation. Considered by some to be invented by Cleopatra the Alchemist, a 3rd century alchemist believed to have be one of few to create the philosopher's stone.
This is part of a series of signet rings I am making cast from lead-free pewter. Each ring master is hand sculpted to give a unique, rustic style, relief image when used as a seal, with sealing wax.
