Description from the seller

Grab an Uzbek Tumark silver and lapis lazuli ring (35 g)
Silk Road.
Exceptional traditional ethnic ring "Tumark" (carrier of amulets or religious scrolls) from the Uzbek region (Central Asia). A large ethnographic piece with superb guild-style metalwork, handmade in solid silver, unhallmarked.

Lapis Lazuli: Excellent—featuring a dense mosaic of exactly 15 high-quality lapis lazuli cabochons.
The gems show an intense ultramarine blue, uniform, with subtle flashes of natural pyrite, without losses or restorations.
