Stylised Corbula ring
The artefact
This silver ring with a mirror-finish surface that has a central irregularity that houses a small copper sphere, draws on the shape of the corbula, a woven receptacle of the local tradition. Entirely handmade based on the craftswoman’s original design, it can be customised with short inscriptions on the band.
