Shield ring

Shield, Medieval cross ring in sterling silver

The shield, an ancestral weapon of protection, has crossed the ages, evolving in shape and material through different eras. This silver ring represents a shield of the escutcheon type, a powerful medieval symbol that reached its peak at the end of the 12th century. Its form roughly resembles a diamond with a shortened top, evoking medieval coats of arms and the art of defense.

At the heart of this symbolic shield stands a red-anchored cross, one of the crosses worn by the famed Templars. This French religious and military order, founded in 1129, was entrusted with protecting pilgrims on their way to the Holy Land. The Templars left a profound mark on medieval history through their bravery and role during the Crusades and the Iberian Reconquista, becoming figures surrounded by courage, mystery, and legend. Their history is closely tied to tales of the Holy Grail, hidden treasures, and spiritual secrets.

This ring embodies the chivalric spirit and the ideals of the Templars: protection, faith, devotion, loyalty, and sacrifice. It pays homage to the rich and complex heritage of this brotherhood, while also standing as a timeless symbol of strength, courage, and spirituality. Wearing this piece connects you to a part of medieval history, to the honor of knights, and to the quest for light amidst the shadows of the past.
