Silver Moroccan Berber Ring with Chevron Bead
£105.00
A Moroccan Amazigh (Berber) silver ring with a central chevron bead and granulation. The layered glass bead is used to represent the ‘evil eye’ and is perceived to offer protection to the wearer. The circles surrounding the bead symbolise eternity. The band of the ring again features the protective eye motif and further decoration. This ring is in very good condition. Stunning.
