A wide silver ring forms a cylindrical band with a jagged upper edge. Pointed clusters of tiny spheres line the top and bottom borders. A central horizontal band features flat, diamond-shaped pieces alternating with round clusters of spheres, framed by rows of twisted wire. The dense surface is covered in granulated metalwork and layered beads. Dark patches within the recessed textures contrast with the metallic finish of the silver.
