  • what a beautiful ring, i saw the detail photo. verry nice made. i like when it is special

  • Even the materials and methods used in creating the setting is complicated, not just the cast silver of the band!  It must have been a challenge to put all this together in such a huge ring.  It covers more than half of my finger length and the silver band is big enough for the largest man's hand, it seems.  Since the band is made very much in the style of the male signature seal rings of that region, I am assuming that this, too, must have been made for a man.
