Book Synopsis

Ancient finger rings made of base metals and low-grade silver alloys are increasingly being unearthed and sold through a growing assortment of marketplaces worldwide. Reference material on ancient rings has focused mainly on historic and "high-end" pieces--the precious metals and stones of royalty and the wealthy--while little has been written on the evaluation of common rings. This guide describes their composition, structure and imagery, thus providing merchants, collectors and researchers with a comprehensive reference on these ancient artifacts that, until now, have gone unexamined.

Review Quotes

"Profusely illustrated and impressively informative...a definitive and comprehensive reference on these ancient artifacts.... Exceptionally well organized and presented."-Midwest Book Review; "The writing is concise, knowledgeable, and very informative"-ARBA.
