Chevalière ovale portrait d'animal
Their face on your hand, in the small moments of an ordinary day. A slim oval signet, their portrait drawn by hand from your photo — yours to keep them close.
A ring sits where your own eyes fall when your hands are busy, so their face stays close through an ordinary day. The portrait rides a polished oval face: their likeness drawn by hand from the photo you send, then laser-engraved into the metal. Because it begins as a real drawing, a small face can still read as theirs — the set of the ears, the line of the eyes, the things only you would notice.
This is the oval signet ring: a slim band rising to a softer, more delicate oval face, quieter than our bold round signet. The base is 316L surgical stainless steel — hypoallergenic and tarnish-resistant. The oval runs about 13 mm long, vertical and understated, so it reads as everyday jewelry that happens to carry them.

Common questions
How do I find my ring size, and what if it doesn't fit?
Measure at home with our printable ring sizer, or go by a ring you already wear on that finger. This oval signet runs in US sizes 6 to 10. If the size isn't right, you can exchange it within 30 days for another in that range.
Will my pet's portrait still look like them on a face this small?
The oval gives the artist a small but clear canvas. Because the portrait is drawn by hand before it's engraved, the features that make your pet theirs can come through, even on a face this small. If your photo can't carry enough detail to draw from (a very dark coat, a blurry shot), we'll email you before engraving rather than ship something that doesn't look like them.
Is it comfortable for everyday wear, even washing hands or doing dishes?
Yes. The band is slim and the oval face sits flat to your finger, so it doesn't catch or feel heavy. The 316L surgical steel is tarnish-resistant and shrugs off water, soap, and hand cream, so it's made for everyday wear.
Can people with sensitive skin or metal allergies wear it?
Yes. The base is 316L surgical stainless steel, which is hypoallergenic, so most people with metal sensitivities wear it without irritation. If you're highly reactive, check with us before ordering.
How is this different from your round Pet Portrait Signet Ring?
Same hand-drawn portrait, two shapes. Our original Pet Portrait Signet Ring has a bold, round face and a unisex feel, in sizes 4 to 14. This oval is softer and more delicate: a slim band and a smaller vertical face, in sizes 6 to 10. Choose the round for presence, the oval for quiet.
How is this different from your Pet Portrait Band Ring?
The Pet Portrait Band Ring is wide and bold, carrying your pet's portrait and their name side by side on one band. This oval signet is quieter: the portrait alone on a slim band, with no name. Pick the band ring to say everything at once, the oval to keep it simple.
