Description
A striking ouroboros ring, expertly crafted from brass or bronze, with dimensions of 4.33x3.94x0.79 inches (11x10x2 cm), this piece is a unique representation of the ouroboros from late 19th to early 20th century Asia. The ouroboros, an ancient symbol depicting a serpent eating its own tail, signifies infinity and the cycle of birth and death. This particular ring, with its detailed scale pattern and the serpentine heads meeting at the top, is a powerful example of the symbol's longevity and its spread across different cultures. It is a significant relic for collectors interested in the cross-cultural representations of mythological symbols.
