Description from the seller

A handsome Silver finger ring with a high red-orange cabochon set in a navette-shaped bezel accented by a row of applied bosses. The cabochon is bright translucent — likely glass paste or heat-treated carnelian — producing a warm, gem-like glow. The applied bosses and simple band are characteristic of early medieval and crusader-era dress rings; the object would suit collectors of medieval jewellery, crusader-era relics, or wearable historic pieces.

Weight: 4.20g, Height: 21mm

Culture: Early medieval / Crusaders

Date:11th–14th Century AD
