Segmented Snake-Motif Ring

Details

This snake-motif ring curves into a coiled outline, with a wider pointed head and a narrower tapered end facing past each other. Raised trapezoid-like segments repeat along the band, separated by fine grooves. Small clear-looking points brighten the head and the tapered tip. The photographs show gold-tone and silver-tone finishes with the same segmented pattern. Smooth angular faces alternate with the brighter decorated areas, so the surface shows different highlights from different angles. The front leaves a visible gap between the offset ends. Pair the sculpted motif with a plain sleeve or simple band to keep its scale-like divisions in view.
