Rings

This sterling silver ring is inspired by the lion motif, a symbol of strength, courage and leadership.
Lions have been widely used in art to provide a sense of majesty and awe. Lions were bold creatures and many ancient cities would have an abundance of lion sculptures to show strength. There are lions at the entrances of cities and sacred sites from Mesopotamian cultures; notable examples include the Lion Gate of ancient Mycenae in Greece which has two lionesses flanking a column that represents a deity. The Lion Gate was the main entrance of the Bronze Age citadel of Mycenae. It was erected during the 13th century BC, around 1250 BC in the northwest side of the Acropolis.
