The Saint Michael Sword Ring is a signet in 925 sterling silver carrying the sword and the cross of Saint Michael, the archangel described in scripture as the commander of the heavenly host who casts down the dragon. The face of the ring holds the two together, the sword set against the cross.It is the sword that makes this a Michael ring rather than a general Christian one: he is the archangel shown armed, and the blade is the sign of the fight against evil that his name is invoked for. Worn on the hand, it carries the old prayer for protection under the archangel's defense.
