{"product_id":"tudor-zegelring-w-s-verguld-tin","title":"Tudor signet ring W.S., gilded tin","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis gilded Tudor signet ring bears the monogram 'W.S.', intertwined with a love knot. The original, a gold signet ring, was unearthed in 1810 near the churchyard of Holy Trinity in Stratford-upon-Avon, where William Shakespeare was born and buried. An attribution to the poet himself is tempting, but unproven; it is indeed precisely the sort of ring an Elizabethan gentlemen wore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShakespeare's will, curiously enough, bears no seal: in the closing formula the word 'Seale' was crossed out and replaced by 'hand'. The ring is cast from lead-free tin and subsequently gilded for a warm gold lustre, with an adjustable band for a comfortable fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn evocative showpiece for enthusiasts of the Tudor period and Shakespeare, or as a special gift.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Celtic WebMerchant","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54250112680264,"sku":"WSR","price":5.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0891\/2892\/7560\/files\/wsr.jpg?v=1791455868","url":"https:\/\/www.celticwebmerchant.co.uk\/products\/tudor-zegelring-w-s-verguld-tin","provider":"Celtic WebMerchant","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
