13th Century Jewish Wedding Ring Reproduction by Jeweria

Gorgeously intricate and meaningful, this ring is a reproduction of a Jewish Wedding Ring found in Erfurt, Germany. The upper part of the ring features a finely crafted Gothic temple symbolizing the destroyed Temple of Jerusalem. On the underside are two fine intertwined hands, a symbol of marital fidelity. On either side of the circlet, winged dragons support the miniature temple. The Hebrew letters מזלטוב (Mazel Tov) are engraved on the roof of the miniature temple.

Each ring comes with its own ring sizer from Jeweria and ring stand for display. Please see the sizing guide below.

ABOUT THE RING:

The original ring was found in Erfurt, Germany and is considered the oldest, most impressive and most detailed of the three medieval wedding rings that still exist today. The masterpiece of medieval wedding rings is just one example of the outstanding Jewish craftsmanship of the 14th century.

The original ring was made around 1300 and buried under a staircase near the Old Synagogue in Erfurt in 1349 along with over 3,141 silver coins, 14 silverbars, and 700 goldsmith's items. This unique ensemble of Jewish artifacts was rediscovered during construction work in 1998 and is known as the Erfurt Treasure. The Old Synagogue was made a UNESCO World Heritage Site in September 2023.

Jeweria is the official manufacturer of certified reproductions of the historic Jewish wedding ring. Manufacturing takes place in a traditional German goldsmith factory using a multi-stage process. The rings are made of 3D printed brass with rose copper plating.
