A very impressive Ottoman Empire silver-metal ring. It presents a raised bezel with a hexagonal red hardstone intaglio showing an insect, possibly a bee, in flight. Incised circles enrich the background. The intaglio decoration served as a stamp or a seal, illustrating a protective symbol or the heraldry of the owner. The raised bezel is richly decorated on all sides with geometric patterns and the ring band is decorated with protruding details on the shoulders and incised curvilinear patterns. Good solid condition, wearable. Signs of wear consistent with age and use.
