Islámico Bronce Anillo - Medieval 12th - 14th AD (Sin precio de reserva)

Islamic Bronze Ring – 12th/14th Century AD – Ø18mm – 3.20g

This finely crafted Islamic bronze ring dates from the 12th to 14th century AD, showcasing an elegant design enriched with granulated motifs around a central bezel. The surface is adorned with raised circular patterns, likely symbolizing celestial or protective elements commonly seen in Islamic art of the period. Its compact form and subtle asymmetries suggest it was cast for personal wear, possibly serving both decorative and amuletic purposes.

The central bezel, now smooth with time, may once have held an inlay or inscription, now lost to age and use. Despite the loss of any specific text or iconography, the piece retains strong visual character. The craftsmanship of the ring—evident in the balanced proportions and rhythmic repetition of motifs—reflects the refined artistic sensibilities of medieval Islamic metalwork.
