Description from the seller
Attention: due to customs regulations we can only ship inside the European Union. Please ensure you have a valid EU shipping address before placing a bid.
Very impressive antique Islamic / Ottoman silver ring with a circular carnelian gemstone. The engraving depicts a stylised standing lion, turning its head back over its left shoulder with additional punched or stippled dots in the field.
The gemstone is secured in a raised silver setting with a fully closed back construction. Richly engraved and applied foliate and scroll motifs around the bezel, on the shoulders and ring band. Tapering ring band which is finished with a small applied knob in the centre.
Outside diameter: ± 28m4 mm maximum
Inside diameter: ± 17 - 24,8 mm
Height bezel: ± 10,1 mm
Condition: Good condition and wearable. The gemstone is well preserved with clear engraving details and minor surface wear consistent with age. The silver setting shows light wear and patina, with no apparent structural damage. Overall condition is good.
Certificate of Authenticity: available upon request (pdf-format).
