The new design is chunkier so that I can offer it in any size.

Boys in Ancient Rome would have worn these Phallic signet rings as apotropaic jewels, to protect them from witchcraft and the evil eye. The phallus represents the deity Fascinus who was a protector of children. The phallic symbol evoked his protection, and the crude symbol was believed to scare away the nasties.

DETAILS:

  • Phallic signet ring.

  • Cast in brass and also available in recycled sterling silver.

  • A chunky band.

  • An organic molten effect, created with hot jewellers wax, and which imitates an artefact churned around by time.
