This is a vintage, handcrafted ring from Nepal, signed with the "PTI Nepal" mark. It features a large, oval, pink natural stone, which is often identified as rhodochrosite or rose quartz. • Origin and Craftsmanship: The ring is an ethnic piece, handcrafted by artisans in the Kathmandu Valley, where silversmithing traditions have been passed down for generations. The "PTI Nepal" stamp is a common mark found on sterling silver items from this region. • Material and Design: The setting is sterling silver (marked 925), and the large pink stone is intricately carved with a floral motif. The stone is set in a bezel setting and surrounded by a detailed, silver border. This design is typical of traditional Nepalese and Tibetan styles. • Significance: Jewelry from Nepal often has cultural and spiritual significance, with different stones and symbols believed to offer protection or healing properties to the wearer. Size 8. Excellent condition. Approximately 1.25 X 1 inch.
