Silver Ring with Domed Granulated Bezel

Silver ring featuring a large domed bezel decorated with applied granulation arranged in concentric rows. The dome rises to a small spherical finial at the apex. Rows of small silver bosses create horizontal bands around the bezel, with additional decorative elements between them. The band is decorated with incised patterns. This elaborate granulation technique is characteristic of Byzantine and early medieval metalwork.
