Manufacturing Excellence
Leading Craftsmanship & Expert Knowledge
All Deakin & Francis signet rings are handmade in our Birmingham factory. The process of making a ladies signet ring has as much history and heritage as the piece itself.
Single Mine Origin
Traceable gold for our signet rings
Single Mine Origin (SMO) denotes gold that has been produced by a legitimate mining operation which holds no ties to conflict, where miners are paid a just wage under secure employment. All of our 9ct and 18ct gold signet rings use this sustainably sourced gold, which guarantees that the communities living locally to the gold source are benefitting from sustainability initiatives including programmes centred on education, healthcare, safe drinking water and agricultural prosperity to support a wide number of people.

FAQ
What does a signet ring symbolise for women?
Once regarded as a gentleman’s emblem of heritage and status, the signet ring has found new life in women’s jewellery. Today, it represents personal style, individuality and a connection to tradition. Some women choose to design their own rings, making something truly unique to them, while others wear heirloom pieces passed down through generations. Whether left plain for a subtle statement or engraved with initials, floral designs or family crests, women’s signet rings have become a quiet symbol of confidence and meaning.
What metals can you choose for a ladies’ signet ring?
You can choose from a carefully curated selection of precious metals for our women’s signet rings. If you love a classic look, yellow gold, available in both 9ct and 18ct, is a timeless favourite with its warm, rich glow. White gold offers a modern twist and a soft shine. Rose gold adds a gentle hint of pink, perfect for those who prefer something a bit more delicate. And for a refined option, sterling silver is always a beautiful choice.
Should a ladies’ signet ring be plain or engraved?
There’s no right or wrong answer. A plain signet ring has a quiet elegance, letting the beauty of the metal and craftsmanship speak for itself. It’s a popular choice for its simplicity and timeless charm.
On the other hand, engraving adds a unique, meaningful touch. Whether it’s a family crest, initials or a delicate motif like a flower or symbol, engraving turns a ring into something truly personal. At Deakin & Francis, every engraving is done by hand in our Birmingham workshop, using traditional tools and techniques that have been passed down over generations. Whether you choose to keep it simple or make it your own with engraving, a women’s signet ring is something to cherish for years to come.
What finger should a woman wear a signet ring on?
While signet rings were once traditionally worn by men for sealing documents, today they’ve become a timeless and personal accessory for women. The most common choice is the little finger on your non-dominant hand; the left for right-handed wearers, and the right for left-handed ones. Some choose to avoid the fourth finger, often associated with engagement or wedding rings but, ultimately, it’s all about what feels right to you. At Deakin & Francis, we believe your ladies signet ring should be worn wherever it feels most natural.
