Antique islamic silver ring with Hajj bead – Oman

Antique Islamic silver ring with “hajj” pearl engraved in glass.
These pearls, sometimes decorated with inscriptions or, as in this case, with depictions of the crescent moon and stars — symbols of Islam — are worn after the pilgrimage to Mecca or purchased as souvenirs to commemorate the event.
In Oman, these rings are worn by both men and women without distinction.
The ring’s inner diameter measures 18 mm (0.71 inches), while the front part’s height is 15 mm (0.59 inches).
High silver quality and beautiful antique patina.
