H
aving moved beyond simple monograms, modern
jewelry designers are using the classic signet ring as a
miniature canvas for compelling storytelling—carving,
bejeweling, and enameling intricate engravings
(creatures, symbols, landscapes, and more) that reflect a future
owner’s personal timeline, beliefs, or aspirations. Hand-painted enameling turns
the signet’s flat top into a wearable painting; Margot Robbie gifted her Wuthering Heights costar Jacob Elordi a bespoke ring (she has the matching one) by London-based Cece Jewellery,
engraved with a line from Emily Brontë’s 1847 novel: “Whatever our souls are made of, his and
mine are the same.” —RM
