Islamic Bronze Signet Ring – 12th–14th Century – 21mm x 12mm – 6.40g This striking Islamic bronze signet ring dates to the 12th–14th century and bears the characteristic elegance of medieval Islamic craftsmanship. The oval bezel displays geometric linear motifs engraved in shallow relief, possibly evoking stylized Kufic script or symbolic abstraction. The coppery patina that dominates the bezel contrasts subtly with the darker body, enhancing its visual complexity and lending it a distinguished appearance. Cast in bronze and shaped with a slightly tapered band, the ring remains intact and shows signs of extensive use, which only adds to its charm. Its surface bears the gentle abrasions of age, yet the engraved design remains legible. These types of rings were likely used as personal seals or status indicators, blending functionality and artistry in everyday life across Islamic territories. Material: Bronze Dimensions: 21 mm x 12 mm internal diameter Weight: 6.40 grams Date: 12th–14th century CE Condition: Good condition with expected wear from age. The bezel shows a beautiful copper-bronze patina, and the band is structurally stable. A compelling artifact of Islamic cultural heritage, this signet ring distills the visual harmony and symbolic abstraction typical of medieval Islamic art. Provenance: Acquired from an auction house in 2025, previously owned by a collector from the South of Germany, acquired in the 1980s.
