Oval bezel, just under ¾” breadth (0.72”) with opposing figures of a circle nesting in a  curved angle, probably references to the sun and moon which were worshiped as Sol and Mani. The center with stipple decoration, perhaps celestial references as well. The bottom as separate overlapping prongs, fused. All the decoration uniform and crisp. Professionally refurbished with the 24karat gold overlay restored for contemporary wear. See the reference image which shows the process. Jewelry gift boxed with certification of authenticity.
