Ring with clasped hands, tin

Product description

This ring displays two clasped hands: an ancient symbol of friendship and love. In the Middle Ages, people wore such rings as a sign of connection, sometimes at an engagement or wedding.

The ring is cast in lead-free tin and the size is easy to adjust by bending. Skilled smiths made rings from lead alloys and bronze; only the wealthy could afford examples in gold and silver.

Whether you wear it for re-enactment, give it as a gift to someone dear to you, or simply treasure it yourself: this ring is a meaningful and heartwarming piece of jewelry with an ancient story.
