A silver ring, exhibiting a muted gray patina with green oxidation, consists of two upright, twisted loops joined by a flat base. Each rope-textured loop terminates in a flattened, animal-like head. The loops pass through circular openings in the base plate, which bears small red markings. Glints of light highlight the coarse, twisted metallic texture of the vertical bands against the smooth, dark horizontal base.
