Symbolism: The purpose of the symbol that appears on Bahai ringstones and other Bahai identity jewelry is a visual reminder of God's purpose for man, and for Bahai’s in particular. Bahai identity jewelry often is a conversation starter about the Faith and may be considered a teaching and proclamation aid. The ringstone symbol was designed by Abdu'l-Baha and rendered by Mishkin-Qalam, a close companion of His and the leading calligrapher of Persia. 
The Ringstone symbol used on this design is a reproduction of the original design by Mishkín-Qalam.
