Ring size 10 1/2. These iconic rings, sometimes called shield rings are a variation on the coil ring which was a popular Vikings form. The band is made with overlapping ends rather than continuous. The oval bezel is just under 1 ½” (1.42”)” in length. Broad overlapping prong band allowing for some adjustment. Large oval bezel with three transverse rounded ridges continuing the band and flanked by reeded edge conjoined circle bands. Reeded V’s outside with triple nub clusters in the three divided segments. Unusually made as a thick plate with the decoration incised. These usually are thin, near foil thickness with the decoration embossed and easily wear with small holes appearing. All the decoration is crisp and uniform in this example. Professionally refurbished with the 24karat gold overlay restored for contemporary wear. Jewelry gift boxed with certification of authenticity. Museum-worthy and an absolute show-stopper!
