IRANIAN OLD RING WITH TREES OF LIFE

Silver, gilt, enamel, Pakistan and IranDescription:As in Afghanistan, the enamelled work dominated by blue and green is much appreciated (beautiful enamelled representation of trees of life in this case) ... a beautiful antique ring whose dimensions make it something special! Also note the four birds in relief around the edge, beautiful engravings and the eye of god on the underside of the body (golden ball) that make me think that this ring comes most probably from Iran ...Size:7,2 adaptableWeight:49,7grDiameter::Plat : 1,73inchwww.halter-ethnic.com see "My Finds"
