A stunning ancient replica of a Greco-Roman silver ring.

 

Acquired from a Greek antique shop in Sabac Serbia.  According to the owner, it was handcrafted in the mid- to late- 1800s in a small silver foundry in Acharnes, on the outskirts of Athens.

 

A lot of history here.  The flatness of the traditional round finger ring has a story of “ancient adaptability” for silver jewelry.  The reading on this ring is 7 US . .  but being oval, it is “adaptable” both larger or smaller.
