Ancient elegance meets modern craftsmanship in this one-of-a-kind ring featuring an authentic 1/2 drachm silver coin from Pontus-Amisos, a coastal city of the ancient Hellenistic world.

Their deep red tones bring warmth and vibrance to the piece, balancing the cool silver with a sense of strength and passion. The ring features an open, adjustable band—thoughtfully designed for comfort, versatility, and timeless wearability.
Each element of this piece is carefully considered: the balance of materials, the meaning behind the motifs, and the seamless fusion of antiquity and modern jewelry art. A wearable artifact, powerful yet refined.
