The St. Benedict Medal Cross Signet Ring is a signet in sterling silver carrying the medal of Saint Benedict of Nursia, the sixth-century monk whose Rule shaped Western monasticism. The face holds a cross ringed by the abbreviated Latin of the prayer of protection: VRS for Vade Retro Satana, begone Satan, and SMQL for Sunt Mala Quae Libas, what you offer is evil.
Those letters are prayer set down in abbreviation, which is why the medal has been blessed and worn as a devotional object for centuries. Here it sits on a signet, the flat face normally kept for a family crest, so the prayer becomes the wearer's own mark.

Measure the internal diameter of the ring (in mm).
Use the below chart to determine your ring size.
Measure your fingers at the end of the day when they’re at their largest.
Consider the width of the band, a particularly thick band will feel tighter than a thin band so you may want to buy a full size larger that your normal ring size.
Do not measure your hands when they are cold, they may have shrunk up to half a size.
Alcohol and salt can make your fingers swell so refrain from measuring your ring size after cocktails and appetizers.Measure your fingers at the end of the day when they’re at their largest.
