A wide, weathered ring, aged with dark tarnish and green patina, features a series of rounded, dome-like protrusions encircling the center. Vertical rectangular panels sit between each protrusion, and fine beaded borders frame the upper and lower edges. The muted gray surface is rugged and irregular, worn with numerous small marks and pits evidencing significant age.
