This intricate ring is based on a broken ring fragment from Iona which is now in the National Museum of Scotland.
It has parallels in Pictish, Saxon and Irish cultures but the origin of the ring’s manufacture is not known for sure.
This ring is made in two parts with the central detail gold plated and set with a glass cabochon before being riveted in place with 2 silver rivets.
A truly regal looking artefact! What kind of person do you think wore the original ring?

This beautiful Pictish ring is based on a gilt silver bezel found by a detectorist near Montrose. Its similarities to the Burghead ring are very self evident and being made from precious metal will complete your high status Pictish reenactment kit with a touch of regality.
