A finger ring with a dark band and an oval bezel or setting containing a greenish inlay/inscribed field.

The image shows a small ancient Egyptian finger ring viewed from the front. The band appears dark grey to black with a rounded circular profile. The bezel is an oval, projecting slightly, with a greenish surface/inlay that preserves wear and surface pitting; within the oval field there are shallow, worn relief markings that could represent an engraved sign or throne-name cartouche, but the details are not clear enough to identify specific hieroglyphs or read the king’s name. No other inscriptions are visible, and no deities are clearly depicted. The object’s coloration and glassy surface are consistent with a faience ring, though the material is not independently verifiable from the photo beyond the visible green glazed appearance.
