Shield, medieval cross ring in sterling silver

The shield, an ancestral protective weapon, has evolved since ancient times, adapting to shapes and materials throughout the ages. This ring represents a shield of the escutcheon type, which reached its peak in the late 12th century. Roughly bearing the shape of a diamond, with a significantly reduced upper part, it evokes the medieval era and the art of defense.

At the heart of this symbolic shield proudly sits one of the crosses used by the famous Templars, known as the anchored cross of gules. It pays homage to the French religious and military order of the Templars, founded in 1129. Primarily tasked with protecting pilgrims on the road to the Holy Land during the Crusades, the Templars wrote an important chapter in medieval history. Their participation in numerous battles during the Crusades and the Iberian Reconquista forged their reputation as courageous knights shrouded in mystery. Between the Holy Grail and their presumed hidden treasure, the Templars remain an endless source of fascination and speculation.

This ring is a striking evocation of chivalrous spirit. It embodies the morals, faith, devotion, and sacrifice of the Templars, thus recalling the rich and complex legacy of this illustrious brotherhood.

Metal: sterling silver.

Length on the phalanx: 2.9cm.
