AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Historical finger ring made of a bronze copper alloy with a distinctive triangular ring front and ribbed shoulders on both sides. Owing to its characteristic design, the piece is provisionally assigned to the Middle Ages to early modern period, roughly the 12th–16th century AD.

Particularly notable is the plastically raised, nearly triangular ring front that transitions directly into the ring shank. On both sides of the ring front there are several parallel, raised ribs and recessed grooves.

The dark, sometimes gray-green surface shows irregular patination. The visible surface changes emphasize the historical character of the piece.
