This silver and niello ring from the Caucasus, crafted by Hazara artisans, features a central dove motif, symbolizing peace and spiritual protection.
Made of silver and decorated with engraved geometric and floral patterns filled with niello, this ancient technique creates a strong contrast between the silver and black.
Silver, known for its protective qualities, and the dove give the ring deep spiritual significance. Worn as a talisman, the ring represents inner peace and protection.
It reflects the cultural identity of the Hazara and their traditional craftsmanship. This piece is a testament to the enduring artisanal practices in the tribal ethnic jewelry of the Caucasus.
