Description
Copper alloy finger ring. Both men and women wore rings. They often had a functional, as well as a decorative role. Examples include rings in the form of a key, used to open small caskets, and signet rings, mounted with an engraved gem or glass, used to seal letters. Others, like wedding rings, had a symbolic role.
