This is the sort of napkin ring that decided a plain edge simply would not do. A smooth central band is framed above and below with raised scrolling decoration, giving the piece a wonderfully dressed-up look without requiring an actual formal dinner.
Its darkened patina settles into the relief work and makes every curl and flourish more visible. Use it at the table, add it to a collection of antique napkin rings, or let it sit on a shelf looking far more important than an object designed to hold folded linen has any right to look.
Condition: Vintage condition with tarnish, darkened patina, scratches, rubbing, and surface wear. The metal is unmarked.
