Late Roman/Early Byzantine Bronze Ring - 4th to 6th...

Late Roman–Early Byzantine Bronze Signet Ring with Incised Geometric Motif – 4th to 6th Century AD A cast bronze signet ring attributed to the Late Roman–Early Byzantine period, formed with a broad hoop expanding into an elongated oval bezel. The surface is engraved with a schematic geometric composition of intersecting horizontal and vertical lines, possibly representing a stylised monogram or protective symbol. Additional linear decoration extends along the shoulders, while the dark archaeological patina and mineral deposits emphasize the ring’s ancient character. The compact integral construction and abstract engraving are consistent with personal signet and amuletic rings used throughout the Eastern Roman world during Late Antiquity. Material: Bronze Dimensions: 2.1 × 2.0 cm Weight: 2.42 g Provenance: Acquired in Germany. From a German private collection assembled during the 1980s.
