Description from the seller

Antique Tibetan ring with turquoise silver and red coral

• Main material: antique 925 silver

• Gemstones with inlays: the principal stone is high-grade turquoise mesh (the texture of the natural wire is transparent), matched with natural red coral (rich and colorful)

• Process features: Adopting traditional Tibetan silk, fried beads, carving and inlay techniques, the silk weave is fine and complex, the fritted bead particles are uniform, the inlay is firm and the whole piece presents a strong Tibetan religious and decorative style.

• The set is well preserved,

This ring is an ornament of Tibetan aristocrats or senior monks. The shape combines the auspicious meaning of Tibetan Buddhism. In Tibetan culture, turquoise and red coral symbolize peace, abundance, and vitality. It also has the dual function of religious blessing and identity. It is a national artisanal treasure with great collectible value and cultural significance.
