Gold child’s ring. Islamic, 10th-14th centuries AD. Plain band with rectangular shield inscuribed with what appears to be crude rendering of
bism allah framed by a border of pellets.
Diameter of band: 11mm; weight: 1.32g. Intact.
A charming piece, put difficult to date due to the crudeness of the inscription and the simplicity of the design.
