About the Bahai ring stone symbol.

The ringstone symbol, as its name implies, is the most common symbol found on rings worn by Bahá’ís, but it is also used on necklaces, book covers, and paintings. It consists of two stars (haykal) interspersed with a stylised representation of the word " Bahá’ ". According to the Guardian of the Faith, the Haykal (five-pointed star) is properly the symbol of the Bahá'í Faith. Some of the Báb's writings were set out in the form of a Haykal, and in itself it also represents a human being, with the five points being the two arms, two legs and the head.

 

The lower line of the Ringstone Symbol is said to represent humanity, the upper line God, and the middle line represents the special station of Manifestation of God; the vertical line is the Primal Will or Holy Spirit proceeding from God through the Manifestations to humanity. The position of Manifestation of God in this symbol is said to be the linking point to God, through which humanity can achieve perfection.

The symbol is designed by ‘Abdu’l-Bahá

 

About the Greatest Name symbol

The Greatest Name, or more fully, the calligraphy of the Greatest Name of God, is an Arabic calligraphic rendering of "Yá Bahá'u'l-Abhá" (Arabic: يا بهاء الأبهى usually translated as "O Thou the Glory of the Most Glorious!").

This rendering was originally drawn by the early Bahá’í calligrapher Mishkín-Qalam, and later adopted by Bahá’ís everywhere. It is seen in most Bahá’í homes. It can commonly be found on rings as well, though other symbols are also used. It is generally considered to be the more revered of the symbols, and therefore tends not to be used in a casual manner. If it is displayed in a Bahá'í home, it will usually be up high on the wall. This same calligraphic rendition is used at the apex of the interior of the dome of a House of Worship.
