About Ancient Rings

Genuine ancient and medieval rings: Roman gold rings with garnets, intaglios and cameos, medieval stirrup, posy and signet rings, early Islamic seals and ancient Javanese gold. Some are nearly two thousand years old and still wearable today.

Every ring is researched against museum examples, with the stone and the mount dated separately where they differ. Many of our Roman and medieval rings are British metal-detecting finds recorded with the Portable Antiquities Scheme. Read how we tell a genuine Roman ring from a fake.

Buy with complete confidence

  • Researched and documented. Every ring is matched against examples in major museum collections, and many come with a Portable Antiquities Scheme record.
  • 30-day no-hassle returns. If for any reason the ring isn't right, send it back within 30 days for a full refund, no questions asked.
  • Fast, free, fully insured delivery. US orders travel by DHL Express, typically arriving in 1–3 working days, with duties and tariffs covered by us. UK orders arrive next working day, and we ship quickly worldwide.
  • Guaranteed authentic. Every ring comes with a certificate of authenticity and a printed information sheet on its history, beautifully presented in a Ravensbury box.

We don't resize ancient rings, to protect them, but we're always happy to help you find one that fits.
