This men's signet ring features a detailed bas-relief of Saint Christopher on its 21mm circular face, framed by the engraved inscription 'SAINT CHRISTOPHER'. The high-relief central motif is set against broad, tapered shoulders that measure approximately 20.94mm at their widest point. These shoulders are densely decorated with baroque-style acanthus scrolls and floral elements, creating significant visual weight. The shank tapers to a width of 6.16mm at the base, with a thickness of 2.08mm for structural durability. The interior is coved or hollowed to manage material weight, a common practice for large signet designs. The model is prepared as a watertight mesh, intended for lost-wax casting and finishing with oxidised recesses to enhance the detailed relief work. A range of US sizes is provided in the file set.
No gems specified.

Production & Compatibility
The model's high-detail relief and intricate scrollwork are optimized for high-resolution resin 3D printing on SLA/DLP systems like those from Formlabs or Anycubic using castable waxes. The pronounced undercuts in the acanthus decoration require careful support placement to ensure full detail capture. For lost-wax casting, a centrifugal method is recommended to fill the fine details of the Saint Christopher relief and shoulder ornamentation. The hollowed design significantly reduces metal weight, making it a viable production piece in precious metals.
Q: What is the diameter of the top face of the ring? A: The circular top face featuring the Saint Christopher relief has a diameter of 21.00mm, as shown in the technical drawings.
Q: What is the style of the decoration on the ring's shoulders? A: The shoulders are decorated with dense, baroque-style acanthus scrolls and floral patterns. For best results, it is recommended to apply an oxidised finish in the recesses to highlight these details.
Q: The listed weight is for US size 10. How will the weight change for other sizes like US 13? A: The provided weights (e.g., 19.1g in Silver 925) are specifically for the US size 10 model. Larger sizes such as US 13 will have a proportionally higher metal weight due to the increased shank circumference.
