Signet rings have long been the favorite jewelry of well-to-do gents. Originally used to dip in wax and pressed onto envelopes to seal a letter with a family crest, signet rings embody the ability of jewelry to hold power beyond its physical form.

Nowadays, although crested signet rings remain a fixture of the higher classes, the signet ring has mostly become a go-to for luxury labels and streetwear names alike looking to explore the world of classic men's jewelry.

Characterized by a large, flat plane to the top of the ring, which usually features some sort of engraving or embellishment, signet rings are a perfect way to bring a statement into your look without overpowering your outfit.

Below, we’ve put together a selection of sterling silver signet rings and gold signet rings to prove that there’s one for every style. From out-there boldness to understated simplicity, the roundup includes names like Bottega Veneta, Alighieri, AGR, Burberry, and more.

Bottega Veneta Horseman Ring

Although this Bottega Veneta signet ring isn't bold in terms of its color, the size of the gold-plated design ensures that it stands out. Featuring a coin-like circular engraving to the platform, it abides by classic signet-ring style laws.

Burberry Engraved Signet Ring

This Burberry iteration has a slimline profile for a more under-the-radar finish. Featuring a text logo engraved across the top, it's a simple design that packs a punch.

AGR x Hatton Labs Signet Ring

One of the more exciting brands of the moment is AGR, whose big, bold knitwear has made a splash in recent seasons. Teaming up with Hatton Labs, a name leading the way in contemporary jewelry, AGR presents one of the boldest signet rings on the market.

Luis Morais Hexagon Signet Ring

A slightly off-kilter onyx column details the top of this 18k gold signet ring. The two colors work majestically together, and the irregularity of the black detail adds an extra element of surprise.

Hatton Labs Flower Signet Ring

Hatton Labs comes in with another entry as a single entity here. This signet ring features a flower motif to the platform made from white and yellow crystals.

Bleue Burnham Grand Rose Garden Signet Ring

Bleue Burnham is a master of the signet ring, detailing each of the pieces with textured metal and colored stones.

All Blues Platform Ring

All Blues avoids all detailing here, offering up a completely unadorned staple. If you're looking to add a signet ring to your accessories but don't like the attention-grabbing embellishments, this sterling silver version is a winner.

Alighieri The Lost Dreamer Ring

Texture is key here. Although there's no engraving or stones, the Alighieri 'The Lost Dreamer' Ring is a highlight thanks to the irregular finish.

VEERT Signature Ring

VEERT is no stranger to bringing a bit of fun to the world of jewelry. Based around a green centerpiece, this signature ring makes a statement with its blacked-out platform.
