Vintage Sterling Silver Modernist King Cobra Snake Ring

This modernist era sterling silver ring almost looks like an abstract design till you look closely and see the details of the grand King Cobra snake. The artisan handmade ring serpentines around the finger. Size is 8. The top measures 1 1/8 inches wide. Ring has been left with its original aged tarnished patina as some people prefer but this can be polished to a bright shine. There seems to be a hallmark inside the band but because of the shape and tarnish, it's hard to make it out. The snake has always been considered to be a symbol of good luck and this one is an extraordinary design.
