Price €75.00OS0418-871
A beautiful and rare antique silver ring from Afghanistan. Its singularity lies in the ancient so-called Dutch chevron glass bead in the central cabochon that would have usually had a stone attached.
Dutch chevron glass beads are produced in the eighteenth century in the city of Amsterdam in order to imitate rock crystal and other precious stones in the trade with the African and American colonies.
Nice patina

Beautiful and original antique silver ring with eight small colored glass cabochons and a bigger central one with a turquoise stone. It combines influences from Southern India, Nepal and Afghanistan. The Kuchi nomads (of Pasthun ethnicity) cross the vast territory that goes from Iran to India, so their creations are always rich fusions of different styles. Unique.
