The Saint Benedict Medal Ring is a ring in 925 sterling silver whose face carries the medal of Saint Benedict of Nursia, the sixth-century monk whose Rule shaped Western monasticism and who has long been invoked as a protector against evil. The face holds the cross at its center with the medal's inscriptions set around it.On a medal those letters are not decoration but prayers of protection written in abbreviation, and moving them onto a ring keeps them on the hand, in sight through the working day. It is a devotional piece, worn as a request for protection and as a reminder of the prayer itself.
