Description
This ancient bronze or silver signet ring from the Byzantine era, dated between the 4th and 7th centuries AD, is a symbol of authority and personal signature in one. With a US size of 3, this ring was once likely worn by a person of considerable influence. The hexagonal bezel features an intricate engraving, possibly a family crest or a symbol of power, typical of the signet rings used to seal documents and validate the authenticity of messages. Silver was a popular choice for jewelry in the Byzantine period, not only for its beauty but also for its ability to withstand time, as evidenced by this ring's remarkable state of preservation. The design reflects the art and culture of the time, making it a valuable collectible for enthusiasts of ancient jewelry and Byzantine history.
