Description
15th-16th century. See Ancient Rings, T N Pollio p.126 for two further examples. Well rounded band, 3.7mm at the bottom flaring to the broad shoulders intricately decorated in Baroque patterns. Raised oval bezel in two steps, engraved with Jerusalem cross with centered cross beam and tripart terminals. That form is also known as the Crusader's cross, having been an element in the arms of Godfrey Bouillon which he wore during the First Crusade. Godfrey of Bouillon was a Frankish Knight of the First Crusade, known as Baron of the Holy Sepulcher and the Crusader King, ruler of the Kingdom of Jerusalem following its victorious siege in the First Crusade. For that reason, it is also known as the Jerusalem Cross. Almost certainly the ring of a high-ranking clergyman, bishop, or cardinal. Professionally refurbished with the 24karat gold surface restored. Gift boxed with certificate of authenticity. Lovely and wearable size.
