Classic Crossbones – Slick, tactile & iconic; we promise it’ll be your go-to ring from the moment it arrives at your door.
PUB QUIZ KNOWLEDGE TIME:
The earliest known recording of the Crossbones symbol was by the Ancient Greeks, c. 1,000 BC to c. 300 BC. We know, old as.
During the Middle Ages, the symbol was used in Christian art to represent the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.
Then in 1300s the bubonic plague ravaged Europe & to warn others of the danger; plague doctors would wear a mask. This had a beak-shaped nose filled with herbs & spices to protect themselves from the disease & often adorned with the symbol.
Following on, around 13thC-17thC early alchemists’ many experiments were dangerous & potentially deadly so to warn people of the hazards of their work, alchemists would mark their experiments & laboratory equipment with the symbol.
Going into the Golden Age of Piracy in the 17th & 18th centuries the Crossbones symbol became most closely associated with danger and warning. Pirates would fly the Jolly Roger flag as they attacked merchant ships, sending a clear message that surrender was the only option.
Being equipped with such knowledge about this unmistakably iconic symbol, it can’t be surprising to learn that our Crossbones ring is worn world-wide. It’s a great addition, or start of, any BMM Collection!
Originally hand carved from wax, we now cast into solid Sterling Silver as well as 9ct rose, white or yellow gold. Most of our gold is cast to order so please email enquiries over to: [email protected]
Already part of the #CrossbonesCrew but need some more bone rings to keep it company?
We’d go for any combo of, Triple Bones, Bone Heart, Lonely Bone or Crypt. No particular order of course.

Love my crossbones ring. I had been searching for something like this for a long time and could not believe it when I found BMM. Looks amazing on. Would totally recommend.
My favourite ring of all time. Beautifully made and everything I wanted it to be
Brilliant ring lovely quality
I received this Crossbones ring as a gift for Christmas and I am so happy with it! It looks quite delicate but is very sturdy and looks amazing on!
By far my favorite addition my my bmm collection and I feel lost without it on. Get tons of compliments on it including whilst in labour having my baby! totally saving up for a rose gold one now!
This was my first purchase from Bloody Mary Metal and can safely say it won’t be my last.
I absolutely love it. It’s so edgy and unique, nothing like I’ve seen before. The quality is amazing too.
I also want to give a shout out to the team for their fantastic customer service. The ring was out of stock when I wanted to purchase so I sent an email to see if they knew when they would be restocking. I received an email back promptly and was told they could email me when they’re back in stock. I didn’t really expect them to do that as I appreciate the volume of clients they get but they were as good as their word and did send an email to let me know so I was then able to make my purchase. Fantastic company!
Such a great addition to my hands! It’s lovely and came so quickly too!
This is my first purchase from Bloody Mary Metal and I’m so pleased with it, the size is just right and it’s such nice quality, it’s my birthday soon and I’ve already asked for another ring from my sister!
The crossbones was the first BMM ring I got (as valentin’es gift) and it got my heart!
Then I have started my BMM collection and can say that they are very well made, customer service is also outstanding! Pairing with Bellatrix at the moment and looking forward for my next one already!!! Totally approved and recommended!
I love this ring so much. I was lucky to receive this as a gift and I have now purchased the crypt ring to go with it. I have my sights on triple bones and lonely bone. Great quality jewellery with real attention to detail.
