Nr. 78452775
A very impressive Ottoman Empire silver-metal ring. It presents a raised oval bezel with a green hardstone intaglio showing a roaring lion, looking backward with hairs flying behind its head. The background is enriched with an incised dot. 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 pattern and a fine filigree. The ring band is also partly decorated with linear feather-like patterns. Good solid condition, wearable. Signs of wear consistent with age and use.
Measurements: H 3.1cm x W 2.2cm

Provenance: Purchased by the current owner in 2021. Prior English collection of Mr. A.H.D.
