Antique Ethiopian "German Silver" ring with ridge (bicone rim on the outside of the ring) with traditional stamped patterns. Super cool. Over 100 years old and silver in color. 28-30mm in diameter x 10-12mm thick. Rather than being rings for your fingers, these were worn braided in the hair on on a belt. One of these rings would make a nice focal pendant in a necklace. "German Silver" is an old term for what is now commonly called Nickel Silver (a copper-nickel-zinc alloy). Sold separately, not as a group.
