The Alfred Ring

£380.00

Hand-carved in sterling silver, each Alfred Ring takes its time and is born unique — a quiet homage to King Alfred the Great, warrior-dreamer and founder of the realm.

Around the band run the words of the Alfred Jewel: Aelfred Mec Heht Gewyrcan (“Alfred Had Me Made”). For those who feel his spirit stir within, these words are not simply ornament; they are a statement, a subtle vow.

Finished in a comfort fit, the ring sits softly on the hand despite its heavy, substantial nature. Made to order on Dartmoor, once part of the ancient Kingdom of Wessex, this is the perfect gift for enthusiasts of the Anglo Saxon and Viking era of England.

Please note: Ring sizes marked with an * are Made to Order and have a current estimated shipping time of 4 weeks from the date your order is placed.
