AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Byzantine Bronze Ring with Large Polygonal Bezel – 7th to 10th Century AD

A substantial Byzantine bronze ring featuring a broad, slightly polygonal raised bezel with a plain undecorated face and a simple rounded hoop. The stepped transition around the bezel and the overall robust construction are characteristic of utilitarian and personal-adornment rings produced in the Byzantine world during the Early to Middle Byzantine period. The surface preserves a naturally aged brown-green patina with areas of mineralisation and wear consistent with prolonged burial and considerable age.

Material: Bronze
Dimensions: 2.2 x 1.9 cm
Weight: 5.64 gr

Provenance: Acquired in Germany at an Auction House.

We guarantee the authenticity of the pieces, backed by the combined experience of our experts spanning more than 40 years. A Certificate of Authenticity (CoA) will be sent digitally by email.
This item has been legally acquired under European Law.
