In the amber light, each scale catches the gold in its own way.
The pattern shifts as the hand moves.
Egypt Chapter
Aker
The Guardians of the Nile
Méhen shields the sun's passage through the night. Sobek carries the strength of the river. Two Egyptian figures, six pieces of gold jewelry.
Egypt through matter
The circle.The scale.The light.
Aker is the double lion standing at both horizons. He guards the passage through which the sun enters the night. This chapter brings together those who keep watch beside him.
The coiling serpent. The crocodile's skin turned armor. Two figures bound by the Nile, rendered in gold, worn close to the skin.
Méhen
The protectivecircle.
In the Egyptian story, Méhen coils around Ra, the sun god, during the night crossing and shields him from Apophis, the serpent of chaos. His name means "the coiled one."
The ring echoes this movement. The scaled body curves back toward its own head, two marquise emeralds fixing the gaze. The hoops close the same gesture around the ear.

The jeweler's gesture
Sobek
The skinof the river.
Sobek takes the form of the crocodile. The Egyptians associated this figure with strength and protection.
Its skin becomes a motif of clean plates across the gold. Slim ring, wide band or hoops: each width gives a different presence to the same armor.

Aker
Six pieces. Two figures. A light that moves from gold to skin.

What is the production time for Egyptian jewellery from the Aker collection?
Each piece in the Aker collection is made to order with artisanal craftsmanship. Production takes 3 to 6 weeks depending on the metal chosen and, for the Méhen Serpent Ring, the selection of marquise emeralds. The precise timeframe is confirmed when you place your order.
Can I have my Méhen serpent ring engraved?
Yes, interior engraving is complimentary on all rings in the Aker collection, including the Méhen Serpent Ring. You can personalise the inside of your ring with a short text, a date or initials when placing your order.
Are the Aker Egyptian jewellery pieces available in different metals?
The Aker collection is available in 18k yellow, white or rose gold. The bands can also be crafted in platinum for added durability.
What is the return policy for the Méhen serpent hoops?
Express shipping available worldwide. Returns accepted within 30 days, see our shipping & returns policy for details.
Do the Sobek rings from the Aker collection contain gemstones?
The Sobek Rings feature only crocodile scales in relief, without any stones. Their texture directly evokes the skin of Sobek, god and master of the Nile. Only the Méhen Serpent Ring is set with two marquise emeralds as eyes.
Do you offer a resizing service for serpent rings?
Yes. Resizing is complimentary once within the first month after receipt, for an unworn and unengraved ring. After that, we provide a quote. For the Méhen Serpent Ring, whose body coils around the finger, feasibility is assessed case by case: please contact us before returning.

The Sobek Hoops are designed for her. The crocodile-scale hoop closes with a hinge and can be worn alone or with a Sobek Ring, in the same 18k gold. The Sobek bands, meanwhile, are available in three widths for her and for him.

All jewellery in the Aker collection comes with a 2-year warranty covering manufacturing defects. This warranty includes the setting security of the emeralds on the Méhen Ring and the durability of the relief. Normal wear and accidental damage are not covered.
Can I order a men's Sobek ring in rose gold?
Yes, the men's Sobek Rings (2.7 mm and 6 mm) are available in 18k yellow, white or rose gold, as well as platinum. Rose gold brings a contemporary warmth to the scale motif, perfect for a less traditional style.

Are the emeralds in the Méhen serpent ring certified?
The two marquise emeralds that form the eyes of the Méhen serpent are natural stones, selected for their colour and clarity. A Mayuri Paris certificate of authenticity accompanies each ring: it describes the stones set, their cut and the metal.
