This stunning antique Turkmen ring is made of high-grade silver with gold-washed elements and filigree detailing. At the centre is a beautiful large oval-shaped carnelian cabochon. The carnelian has a slight surface scuff but this is not noticeable unless looking at it in a certain light (see photos). The silver work is very intricate and ornate. This is a fabulous statement piece, wearable and collectible.
