This signet ring is cast in lead-free pewter. The ring size when cast is 6.5, 8.25 or 10.25. The sealing image is a interpretation of the sheela-na-gig.
Sheela na gig is an architectural grotesque found all over Europe, with particular presence in the Celtic regions. Thought to ward off evil spirits and offer protection. Invoking a powerful pagan goddess.
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.
