Our contemporary selection of Afghan Tribal Jewelry rings were handcrafted in vibrant Carnelian by artisans living in Peshawar along the Afghan border. Each ring is carefully designed with ornate metalwork and Red Glass accents. The large Carnelian Bead in the dome has a symbolic animal carving of either gazelle, horse, ram and wolf. Legend has it that friendly gods sent their children to earth in animal form to help humans overcome adversity...these forms included the gazelle, horse, ram and rabbit as seen here. For selection, please click on IMAGES and PRODUCT OPTIONS to see and select your favorites. Price is for one ring. See also our similar selection of similar rings in Lapis Lazuli and Turquoise.
