"One Ring To Rule Them All !!!"

That is what this ring is. A true Ring of Power. One look tells you all.

This ring was found at a site in Ancient Thrace where the Celtic tribes held sway until they were subdued by the Romans. This ring dates from between 300BC and 100AD.

These types of rings were often given by a tribes chief to a deserving warrior who could use it as a badge of office and show that he spoke for his chief in important matters.

This fine ring features a HUGE 21mm X 11mm eye-shaped bezel with a thick lip to it which is almost 5mm thick!

The bezel has one of those "Geometric" Celtic Swirl patterns that developed from Greek "key work" patterns.

I have never come across a more well executed example as this one.

These designs were quite popular among the Ancient Celts and figured heavily in a lot of their decorative work. The engravings are still very deep and bold and make for a handsome design.

There are all of the usual fine decorations over the rest of the ring, including those linear decorations that are meant to mimic leather "wrapping" type decorations.

I have worn this ring for a few days because I couldn't resist and it feels VERY substantial when worn and NO ONE will confuse this ring with an inferior example or a modern ring.

This ring is in extremely good condition for being of such a great age and the shine and finish of the ring are first rate.

There is NO DOUBT that this ring was owned and worn by a person of means. This is no common ring and it just SCREAMS class.

I was VERY tempted to just keep this GEM for my own collection as I am unsure if I will ever get another one like this.
