Cusco is famous as the ancient capital of the Inca Empire and a gateway to the famous Inca ruins of Machu Picchu. It's known for its rich history, Inca and colonial architecture, and cultural heritage, attracting tourists and historians alike. Cusco is also considered one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the Americas. This ring is representative of the Incan culture and nature and in particular a dedication and respect for animals. Unsure as to whether this is a bird, alpaca, fish, dragon or something else, it?s a very traditional and oft used symbol. The ring is composed of both 18K and Sterling silver and is handcrafted and has two parts to it - the ring itself and a bowl with the aforementioned unknown animal. The ring is adjustable in that it can be made wider or smaller within a range of size 6-8. An interesting find at a recent high end estate sale and one we here at Uniquitees are excited to offer in our store. Will ship USPS with tracking to winning buyer
