History

Get-go

Cadmus Peverell

"Then the 2nd brother, who was an arrogant man, decided that he wanted to humiliate Expiry nevertheless further, and asked for the power to recall others from Expiry."

— The Tale of the Three Brothers past Beedle the Bard^[src]

Death grants Cadmus Peverell the Resurrection Stone

The ring's story begins (and ends) with its black stone. The rock happened to be the Resurrection Stone, one of the Deathly Hallows of legend, and had the symbol of the Deathly Hallows engraved on its surface. Co-ordinate to The Tale of the Three Brothers, Cadmus Peverell, the middle brother, asked Decease for the power to render people from the dead. Decease supposedly picked upwardly a blackness stone from the nearby river bank and gave it to Cadmus, promising him that it contained the power he had requested.^[i]

Once Cadmus returned to his dwelling, he took out the Resurrection Stone and turned it over in his hand iii times. In doing and so, he brought back his lover who had suffered an untimely death. While she did return from the dead, she was non truly alive and wished to become back to the earth of the expressionless since she no longer belonged in the living world. For Cadmus, it was like being able to come across her only not able to touch her or truly exist with her. Seeing the stone's limitations drove Cadmus to madness, and he took his ain life to truly join his beloved in death.^[1]

An alternative and more than logical version of this story proposed past Albus Dumbledore was that Cadmus was merely a very skilled sorcerer who had created the Resurrection Stone himself.^[9]

House of Gaunt

"Marvolo Gaunt was an ignorant quondam git who lived similar a sus scrofa, all he cared about was his ancestry. If that band had been passed down through the centuries, he might not have known what it really was. In that location were no books in that house, and trust me, he wasn't the blazon to read fairy tales to his kids. He'd had loved to call up that scratches on the rock were a coat of arms, because as far as he was concerned, having pure-blood made you practically royal."

— Harry Potter regarding Gaunt's ignorance of the Hallows, despite possessing one of them^[src]

The stone passed downward Cadmus' family line. At some point, information technology was placed into a golden setting and fabricated into a ring. The ring continued to be passed down the family line, eventually ending up in the easily of the Gaunts. Marvolo Gaunt, the family'due south patriarch at the time, prized this band, along with Salazar Slytherin's Locket, more than than anything, even his ain daughter, Merope.

When the family was visited by Ministry of Magic official Bob Ogden, Marvolo waved the ring in front end of his face in an attempt to impress and intimidate Ogden. When Marvolo and his son Morfin Gaunt were arrested and imprisoned for assaulting Muggles and Ministry officials, his daughter Merope Gaunt abandoned the family to escape the mental torture her begetter continuously employed against her, taking Slytherin's locket with her.^[two]

When Marvolo returned abode, he had foolishly expected to find his daughter dutifully awaiting his render with a hot repast set up for him. What he found, however, was an abandoned house covered with an inch of dust and a notation from Merope explaining what she had done and why. Marvolo died shortly thereafter, either due to his inability to take care of himself or the weakening of his strength from Azkaban. The signet band passed to Morfin when he was finally released from Azkaban, and he continued to wear information technology in his delusional state for several years later on.^[2]

Tom Riddle

"Harry saw that he was wearing Marvolo's gold-and-blackness band; he had already killed his father."

— Tom Riddle wearing the Gaunt ring while at Hogwarts^[src]

Tom Riddle discussing the Riddle family with Morfin Gaunt, while the latter wears the ring

Some years later, Tom Marvolo Riddle returned to Fiddling Hangleton to seek out his family. He had been expecting to meet Marvolo, but instead found the half-crazed Morfin in the Gaunt shack. Morfin remarked how Riddle looked very much similar the muggle that had married his sister, Tom Riddle Snr. He told Riddle how Riddle Snr had left Merope and returned to his parents' dwelling, the Riddle House.

Upon learning of his father's escape, and thus feeling that he had caused Merope's death and Tom going to an orphanage, Riddle stunned Morfin and took his wand. He and then proceeded to the Riddle Business firm to confront his begetter. Frank Bryce, the Riddle'due south gardener, remarked later that he had seen Riddle ascending the hill toward the house. Riddle used a mutual spell to unlock the door and entered the house. One time inside, Riddle found his father, besides as his grandparents, Thomas Riddle and Mary Riddle, in the cartoon room. Riddle then used the Killing Curse on his father and Muggle grandparents.^[5]

It is unknown if in that location were any words exchanged betwixt them before the actual murders took place, but what is certain is that the Riddles were found dead in their cartoon room, with looks of extreme fear on their faces.^[10] Riddle returned to the Gaunt shack and modified Morfin'south memory to make him believe that he had killed the Riddles himself. Riddle replaced Morfin'south wand on his person but absconded with the ring. When Morfin was arrested by the Ministry and establish guilty of the Riddle murders, he was carted off to Azkaban for skillful this fourth dimension. Every bit he was being taken abroad, he continuously remarked that his father would impale him for losing the ring.^[v]

The ring in Tom Riddle's possession after he murdered his begetter and paternal grandparents

Riddle openly wore the ring at Hogwarts after these events, likely as a trophy, as seen on his manus in a memory provided by Potions Master Horace Slughorn. Riddle then questioned Slughorn virtually Horcruxes, particularly what would happen to the wizard that created more than than ane.^[3] By this point, Riddle had already created his first Horcrux, his childhood diary, with the murder of a fellow student named Myrtle Warren. At some betoken shortly before or later his graduation from Hogwarts, Riddle used the murder of his father, Tom Riddle Snr to turn the band into a Horcrux.

After that, he lost involvement in wearing information technology any longer and chose to return information technology to the very place he had stolen it from: the Gaunt shack. He placed the ring inside a golden box and hid it beneath the shack's rotting floorboards. He then set many protective enchantments to deter outsiders from inbound the shack and finding the ring. He also placed a powerful curse on the band every bit well, one that would quickly lead to the death of the band'south wearer if not stemmed. The ring was left in that location in the ruin of the Gaunt shack for many decades to come. In his entire fourth dimension of possessing the ring, Riddle either never knew its powers or status as the Resurrection Stone, or merely did non accept any employ for it, equally he feared the dead and did not wish to bring back anyone.^[v]

Devastation

"I was such a fool, Harry. After all those years I had learned cipher. I was unworthy to unite the Deathly Hallows, I had proved information technology time and fourth dimension again, and hither was final proof."

— Albus Dumbledore discusses the Rock with Harry Potter in Limbo^[src]

In 1996, Albus Dumbledore continued investigating Riddle's obsession with immortality and suspected correctly that Riddle had created up to six Horcruxes. Dumbledore suspected that a good identify to look for one of Riddle's Horcruxes would be the Gaunt shack, considering its importance to Riddle's by. Dumbledore travelled to Lilliputian Hangleton and constitute the remains of the shack, subconscious amid many weeds and brush. Dumbledore succeeded in passing through the enchantments protecting the shack and discovered the gold box holding the ring beneath the shack's floorboards. He brought the sword of Godric Gryffindor with him as information technology now had the power to destroy Horcruxes since Harry had used it to kill the Basilisk in the Bedchamber of Secrets, which imbued the bract with the Basilisk's venom.^[iii]

Albus Dumbledore trying on Marvolo Gaunt's ring

However, Dumbledore recognised the symbol of the Deathly Hallows on the ring's black rock and recognised it as the Resurrection Stone, something for which Dumbledore had searched for the greater part of his life. Hoping to revive his dead family unit members (particularly his sister Ariana Dumbledore), he overlooked the ring's status equally a Horcrux and put it on. This enacted the ring's deadly curse, and it began to quickly spread through Dumbledore'due south body, starting with the hand on which he had put the ring.

After Dumbledore returned to Hogwarts, he used Godric Gryffindor'south Sword to crack the Resurrection Stone so every bit to destroy it as a Horcrux. While the act did destroy the ring as one of Riddle's Horcruxes, information technology did not stop the fatal expletive. The curse gave Dumbledore's paw a withered blackness await, as though it had died. Severus Snape managed to stop the expletive in his correct hand, simply warned him that he had only a year to alive.^[eleven]

Dumbledore kept possession of the ring even subsequently it stopped functioning as a Horcrux

After the Horcrux was destroyed, Dumbledore continued to wear the band for several more days. Most notably, he wore information technology when he picked up Harry Potter from Privet Drive,^[6] and took him to persuade Horace Slughorn to teach at Hogwarts.^[12] During their coming together, information technology was said that Dumbledore specifically displayed the ring to Slughorn, who stared at information technology for several seconds.^[12] This implies that he recognised the ring every bit having belonged to Tom Riddle. Therefore, Dumbledore may have specifically worn the ring—which would indicate his success in tracking downward Voldemort'southward past—both to help encourage Slughorn to return to Hogwarts, and to help persuade him to plow over the correct version of the memory of Slughorn talking to Riddle near Horcruxes.

Within the Snitch

"The metal beat broke open... the black stone with is jagged crack running down the centre sat in the ii halves of the Snitch. The Resurrection Stone had cracked downward the vertical line representing the Elder Wand. The triangle and circle representing the Cloak and the stone were notwithstanding discernible."

— Harry opens the snitch^[src]

Before his decease at Snape's hands, Dumbledore magically sealed the cracked Resurrection Stone inside the Snitch that Harry had caught at his first e'er Quidditch lucifer past accidentally swallowing it. Dumbledore wrote, "I open at the shut", to indicate that information technology would but open and yield the Resurrection Rock when Harry was about to take expiry at the hands of Voldemort.^[iv] Later on Dumbledore's death, Rufus Scrimgeour delivered the snitch to Harry, along with other possessions left to Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger.^[7] Immediately before he surrendered to Voldemort, Harry placed the snitch to his lips and whispered "I am about to dice", and it opened.^[4]

Harry Potter opens the Snitch to reveal the Resurrection Stone

Harry then used the Resurrection Stone to bring dorsum the spirits of James Potter, Lily Potter, Sirius Black, and Remus Lupin. These spirits then comforted Harry as he walked toward his supposed decease and shielded Harry from the effects of the Dementors guarding the Death Eaters' camp in the forest. Upon reaching Voldemort'south military camp in the Forbidden Forest, Harry dropped the Resurrection Stone near Aragog'south Lair.^[four] After having been dropped in the Forbidden Forest past Harry, the Resurrection Stone was pressed into the earth by the hoof of a centaur, and would never be found once more.^[13]

Afterward

"He was continuing inside a ruined rock shack, and the rotting floorboards were ripped apart at his feet, a disinterred aureate box lay open and empty beside the hole, and Voldemort'south scream of fury vibrated inside his caput."

— Harry witnessing Voldemort discovering his missing Horcrux^[src]

Later Voldemort discovered that Harry was hunting his Horcruxes, Voldemort decided to brand sure that each of his Horcruxes was all the same safe and to increment their protection. He decided that the band was possibly the to the lowest degree safe, and thus visited the shack first. Upon discovering that the band had in fact disappeared, Voldemort permit out a scream of fury and quickly left to check the security of his other Horcruxes.^[14]

Description

Physical appearance

The ring was gilt and set with a big, cracked, black stone, the crevice appearing after Dumbledore struck the rock with Godric Gryffindor'due south Sword.^[iii] It was, in Harry's eyes, an ugly ring that was fabricated somewhat clumsily out of gold, probably a testament to the rudimentary skills and tools used to arts and crafts it.^[2]

The ring had the sign of the Deathly Hallows on the blackness stone: a triangle (to correspond the Cloak of Invisibility), containing a circle (to represent the Resurrection stone), bisected by a line (to stand for the the Elder Wand).^[1]

Marvolo Gaunt wore the ring on his centre finger, instead of on the more conventional "ring" fingers. Morfin Gaunt wore information technology on his right paw'due south ring finger, while Tom Riddle wore it on his left manus's center finger.^[2]

Powers

The Peverell glaze of arms engraved on the stone in the ring (really the Resurrection Stone) is the sign of the Deathly Hallows

To protect his Horcrux, Tom Riddle placed the ring under a very powerful curse, so much so that Albus Dumbledore himself mentioned that had it not been for his prodigious skill, he might have died in mere moments of being cursed.^[three] Severus Snape was extremely angry to find out Dumbledore had not proceeded with circumspection when it came to breaking open up the ring. Yet, Albus Dumbledore and Severus Snape were only able to delay the curse's effects for roughly a year.^[xi]

One side effect was that Dumbledore'southward hand had been severely disfigured, giving it a expressionless look.^[3] Unknown to either the Gaunts or Riddle, notwithstanding, the stone in it was the Resurrection Stone, one of the Deathly Hallows.^[4]

Behind the scenes

The ring is the only particular that is both a Hallow and a Horcrux.
Though the stone was damaged from when Dumbledore destroyed the Horcrux, it still worked perfectly as the Resurrection Stone. When asked about this, J. K. Rowling said that merely Dumbledore could take extracted the soul fragment but left the original charm intact.^[fifteen]
Voldemort used a ring every bit ane of his Horcruxes. This is similar to the dark lord Sauron in J.R.R. Tolkien'south Lord of the Rings, who puts part of his power in the One Ring, which is Sauron's merely container of power, whereas Voldemort had seven.
In the film accommodation of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Dumbledore refers to the band as having belonged to Voldemort'southward mother. Withal, in a deleted scene in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Role 1, Harry tells Ron and Hermione that the ring belonged to Voldemort'due south granddad.^[xvi] Additionally, when Harry touches the band, in that location is a wink of images every bit the ring reacts to him, which Dumbledore explains as an identifiable trace of lingering Dark magic.

The band as seen in Harry Potter: Wizards Unite
In the books the band is described as being ugly and clumsily made; in the films the ring is more detailed, with a pattern of snakes biting the rock.
Collectible replicas of Marvolo Gaunt's Ring are made by the Noble Drove.
In Deathly Hallows: Part i, there is a flashback of Dumbledore trying on the ring. All the same, he tries information technology on his middle finger instead of his band finger, as shown in Half-Blood Prince, and instead of the ring flying from his easily, information technology merely glows and forces his hand away as he touches it.
