This sculptural figural ring is composed of a white metal, appearing to be silver or a silver-toned alloy. The design features a central three-dimensional stylized feline head, likely a lion, with textured details suggesting a mane. The ring is characterized by an organic, lost wax cast appearance with a heavily textured, irregular band consistent with Brutalist or artisanal jewelry styles. One shoulder of the ring features an integrated openwork loop, creating an asymmetrical profile. The metal displays an intentional darkened patina in the recessed areas of the sculptural face and the textured band.
