AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful large ring in Berber ethnic style (North Africa), probably dating from the mid-20th century. This distinctive piece of jewelry is characterized by its voluminous architecture and traditional metalwork.
The ring's face is adorned with five red-orange (coral) cabochons, including one large central oval cabochon surrounded by four rectangular cabochons. The silver setting is richly decorated with carefully crafted details typical of Berber craftsmanship: twisted wires and granulation (silver beads) that add relief and texture to the whole.
It's an imposing, sturdy, and highly decorative collectible piece, ideal for lovers of tribal and vintage jewelry.
Technical characteristics:
Type of jewelry: Ring
Style: Ethnic / Berber / Tribal
Era: Vintage, estimated mid-20th century
Material: Sterling Silver (925 hallmark visible inside the ring, see photos)
Stone: red/orange coral (cabochons)
Total weight: 20.52 grams
Finger size: 61 / 62
Dimensions of the ring head (Plateau): 3.5 cm in height × 3 cm in width
Very good overall condition for its age. The jewelry displays a natural patina that emphasizes the reliefs. Note: there are small natural asperities or surface irregularities on the coral (notably a small dark spot visible in the close-up photos), which is characteristic of this ancient organic material and does not detract from the charm of the piece.
Careful shipment, La Poste.
