The iconic SPECTRE ring, first seen in From Russia with Love in 1963, was updated for the latest 007 production SPECTRE. In the movie, the ring is worn by members of SPECTRE, including Marco Sciarra (Alessandro Cremona). Bond takes the ring from Sciarra and it plays a significant part in the story from then on.
SPECTRE Production Designer Dennis Gassner worked with Key Graphic Designer Laura Grant to create a more up-to-date version of the octopus logo bringing the ring into the 21st century. This was then produced by James Enright and his team at Propshop, the company that worked on many Bond films providing models and props.
The replica rings are produced in exactly the same way as the on-screen versions. The concept design is 3D modelled embedding the famous octopus logo. This model is refined and 3D printed in wax. This is then cast in silver, art-worked and carefully finished by hand.
This is a beautifully crafted and unique silver ring. The last pic shows the original screen used ring.
