Traditionally, a signet ring is engraved with a unique design, often a family crest, coat of arms, or a personal monogram. This design serves as a personal signature or symbol of identity, historically used to seal documents and authenticate correspondence. The engraving is typically intaglio, meaning it is carved into the surface of the ring so that it leaves a raised impression when pressed into sealing wax.
