Victor Mayer’s Chevalière collection is based upon the signet ring. Signet rings are traditionally worn on the ring finger or little finger. They evoke feudal elegance, traditional attire and exclusive social circles. Worn as the sole ring on one hand, they evoke images of costume dramas, of a savoir vivre, developed and perfected by the aristocracy over the course of centuries. In other words: stylish elegance.
Today, the signet ring is no longer the preserve of the aristocracy. And certainly no longer a personal tool for protecting the contents of a letter from prying eyes with a seal. In the age of semi-public revelations on Facebook and Twitter the signet ring is more of a statement and fashion accessory. And yet it could be used to protect secret messages.
Victor Mayer offers classic signet rings and matching cuff-links with heraldicallycorrect, hand-engraved coats of arms. The head of the ring lies flat on the finger and is the ideal surface for artistic enamel and guilloche work. The rings are unisex and available in two sizes. With a choice of guilloche, guilloché enamel or individual, hand-engraved stone inlays. The individuality of the self-assured wearer can be expressed in a wide range of colours and materials. And of course, Victor Mayer also offers the matching cuff-links for each ring – for the gentlemen and style-conscious lady.
