A timeless piece of jewellery, the heraldic signet ring embodies the precious heritage of an identity you will not only wear but also pass on. Through our expertise and exacting standards, we bring life and meaning to your project.

A creation faithful to your history

The design process begins with a study of your family coat of arms, then we work with you closely to design your bespoke signet ring. The size, shape and choice of metal are carefully considered to ensure the perfect fit for your coat of arms and finger. Backed by eight generations of craftsmanship, we engrave coats of arms entirely by hand, with finesse and precision.

Heraldic excellence in Paris since 1825

For two centuries, our expertise has enabled us to faithfully reproduce existing coats of arms, all of which are carefully preserved in our archives, or create original coats of arms in accordance with the rules of heraldry. Designed in our workshops in Paris and engraved in metal or stone, your signet ring is the fruit of rigorous craftsmanship, a symbol of elegance, prestige and filiation.

Our 18-carat gold signet rings are available from €4,950 including tax (January 2026).

Oval: The classic signet ring par excellence, elegant and timeless for both men and women. It highlights engraved coats of arms or monograms with finesse.

Cushion: More voluminous, the cushion signet ring features a rectangle with rounded corners, bringing softness and balance but a more assertive presence.

Rectangle with cut corners: This signet ring combines a rectangle with cut corners and a ring body with clean lines and sharp edges. Its flat surfaces give it a modern silhouette.

Tonneau: As its name suggests, the tonneau signet ring has the profile of a barrel with convex edges, while the top and bottom of the head are flat for a distinctive style.

Original shapes: We can make any shape of signet ring based on an old family or historical model, or any other request you may have.

18-carat gold: Our House traditionally uses 18-carat gold, which ensures excellent resistance over time while offering a beautiful yellow gold colour. This alloy also allows the colour of the metal to be adjusted by playing with the proportions of silver, copper and palladium to produce pink, red or white gold. White gold is rhodium-plated white gold, i.e. plated with rhodium to whiten its surface.

Platinum: This highly dense precious metal, with its elegant silver-like hue, offers durability and resistance to oxidation. It is particularly suitable for heraldic intaglio engraving for those who like white metals without any particular maintenance.

925 Silver : Chosen for its beautiful luminosity and finesse, it is less resistant to time and oxidises, lending itself to more occasional wearing.

Stone engraving is an age-old tradition, dating back to antiquity. In those days, it was known as intaglio, a term still used today to describe this refined technique.

Hard stones: These are most frequently used for engraving, and most come from the agate family of carnelian, sardonyx, green agate, blue or pink nicolo. Red or blood jasper and onyx also lend themselves perfectly to intaglio.

Fine and precious stones: Aquamarine, Peridot, Amethyst, Green Tourmaline, Rubellite, Garnet, Blue or Yellow Sapphire, Citrine, Tanzanite, Cordierite, Quartz, Spinelle, Topaz, Lapis lazuli and many more.

Synthetic stones: Sapphire, ruby and garnet, translucent and free of inclusions, offer a homogeneous colour and a beautiful setting for engraving.

How can I be sure that my personalised signet ring will meet my expectations perfectly?

Before any engraving, your coat of arms or monogram is presented to you in the form of a black and white drawing. This stage allows you to visualise the final result and adjust the final details together. The shape of the signet ring is then studied in detail with you to harmonise with your morphology and your tastes. If you wish, we can print the ring in resin so that you can try it on your finger before it is made.

Is it possible to faithfully reproduce an old family signet ring?

Yes, we can recreate your signet ring with precision. Our archives, unique in France, and our two centuries of craftsmanship enable us to reproduce every detail of the original engraving, while adapting the shape of the signet ring to your body type.

Can my coat of arms be created from scratch if I don’t have an existing coat of arms?

Yes, it can. If you don’t have a coat of arms, we can design an original, personalised coat of arms for you. Together, we’ll define the symbols and graphic elements that will reflect your identity, and your signet ring will tell your story and become a unique and precious piece of jewellery that can be handed down from generation to generation.

Experience

Start a creation

Your wish - Our measures

We will welcome you to our Paris boutique to choose the shape and size of your signet ring. We will measure your finger circumference precisely and create the ring based on the shape of your hand and the coat of arms to be engraved.

Heraldic design

We draw up the design according to the documents you provide or the archives in our possession and we will then start manufacturing your signet ring.

Control fitting

You will be able to try on the signet ring before engraving, to check the circumference of your finger and adjust the size if necessary. If you can't come to the boutique, this stage can be carried out remotely, and we'll send you the prototype of your resin signet ring.

Engraving and delivery

Once the heraldic design has been validated, we proceed with the hand engraving on metal or stone and then the setting. After the final polishing, you will take delivery of your signet ring at the boutique, or you will receive it at home in its case, accompanied by its wax seal.
