Description from the seller

Beautiful Tuareg ring in silver, tested with an authentic Venetian bead known as Rosetta or Chevron in 6 layers, dating from the 1800s; these beads were used as currency.
The ring comes from the Moroccan region famous for bracelets with defense spikes—the Oued Noun, a crossroads of merchants and jewelers; on the sides it is decorated with protective eyes that watch over the surrounding world!
The bead has been examined by several industry experts who do not confirm its antiquity!

The ring has an internal diameter of about 18.6 mm
Weighs about 7.25 grams
Carefully packaged, tracked shipping
