Garnet Marquise Scorpion Ring

Handmade by rock & roll jewelry legend Alex Streeter, this ring features a beautifully faceted marquise-cut stone proudly held aloft by two tiny scorpions, immortalized in sterling silver. 

The scorpion is a powerful symbol, hailed by the Ancient Egyptians as an emblem of protection. It was used to represent the goddess Serqet, she who protects the body of the dead, and accompanies them in their journey to the afterlife. In Tibet, the scorpion was often worn as an amulet, guarding the wearer against evil spirits. Small but fierce, the Marquise Scorpion Ring is a dainty piece heavy with meaning and mythos.
