This distinctive solid gold hoop ring, likely crafted in India or Indonesia during the late 19th century, showcases an unusual convex form that adds a unique sculptural quality. Unmarked yet testing as 21K gold, the ring has a satisfying weight of 8.9 grams, contributing to its impressive presence.
The surface exhibits a pleasingly worn patina, which enhance its character and hint at its storied past. Measuring approximately 1.4 cm north to south and 2.7 cm in external diameter at its widest point, it fits comfortably as a UK size P (US 7.5) with an approximate internal diameter of 18 mm.
A similar form is documented in Anne Richter's book The Jewelry of Southeast Asia (p. 106), where a related example from East Timor highlights the regional significance and craftsmanship of such designs. This exceptional piece offers collectors a glimpse into the enduring artistry of Southeast Asia, blending wearable elegance with historical intrigue.
Condition: Very good, with some small dents commensurate with age. The ring retains its solid structure and patina.
