Indian Silver Wound Ring

Silver coil of beaded rings, wrapped round like a small spring.

This silver wound ring is from India. Silver has been worked into rings and other jewelry in India for many centuries, and it is valued for being bright, soft enough to shape and easy to polish. Multi-turn spiral ring in bright grey metal, with each band decorated by rows of raised round studs. The ends taper into a plain, narrow finish, and the beaded surface is slightly scuffed.

Wound up, studded, and ready to cover several knuckles.
