This beautiful old ring has a great handwrought look with its unusual curvy setting.

Face of ring measures 1” x 1 1/2”, band is size 8. Unmarked for maker or metal content. It is either sterling or coin silver.

It depicts the full figure of a Peruvian woman in profile, dressed in traditional period costume. Executed in splendid répoussage, and boasting remarkable hand tooling, the detail here is extraordinary—from the figure’s intricately braided hair, to the five distinct fingers on her hand, to the delicate floral pattern on her pleated skirt.
