(Metal Hammer) Iron Maiden have teamed up with London jewelers The Great Frog to release the third of four official silver rings featuring the band's mascot Eddie.

The collaboration previously resulted in jewellery showing Eddie's Powerslave and Piece Of Mind guises, with the latest version based on Derek Riggs' cover artwork from Maiden's 1981 album Killers.

Designer and The Great Frog owner Reino Lehtonen-Riley tells TeamRock: "Killers is arguably one of the most recognised heavy metal album covers of all time. A truly sinister depiction of Eddie at his gruesome finest, brandishing a blood-soaked axe has always been my favourite of the maiden album covers.

"Eddie has a mischievous, maniacal grin which is quite disturbing. I really hope I have captured the essence and done it justice - quite a task as I think this is Derek Riggs' finest work." Read more here.
