Stunning large and very fine Irish silver dish ring smothered in fantastic embossed and engraved decoration and fitted with a blue glass liner.

The fineness of the detail is just superb and it makes for a very interesting and fun piece beautiful for regular display. It also has a large vacant cartouche framed by scrolls.
