Battered Battenberg UK size P ½  a spiritual gangsta signet with a twist - a smoky quartz and an epic yellow sapphire - this raw hefty sterling silver signet ring has been hand forged and textured,  patina-ed from oxidisation and lightly polished.  34 grams of oooooof.  It’s up there on my favourites

 

Traditionally gangsta signets were worn on the pinky, and would provide their next of kin with a source of funding for their funeral expenses in case of their untimely death... Yes, I went down a internet rabbit hole after watching  "The Irishman" (insignia rings made from three dollar liberty coins - super duper rare are also very special. yum. love a good coin ring). Basically all jewellery in Scorsese movies is always been on point: Ginger’s bed laden with Bulgari in Casino, Karen’s pearls in Goodfellas, Countess Olenska's garnets in The Age of Innocence...

But these are spiritual gangsta rings, their intention is not to aid you or your family in the journey of death (though i am sure it can). This solid silver pinky can bring you;

patience, perseverance, protection, psychic awareness....
