About the Item
This exceptional antique Irish sterling silver dish ring* has a circular waisted form.
The sterling silver body of the antique potato ring is embellished with impressive embossed, chased and pierced decoration incorporating cattle, structures and seated figures playing musical instruments, all amidst interlacing tree and scrolling leaf designs.

Coralia Ring Dish
By Irina Flore
Located in Portland, OR
Coralia decoration dish is a geometric representation of the coral shapes and it is inspired by the colorful sea life. The dish can be used as a display object but it can also be proposed as a jewelry dish.
Coralia is handcrafted by exceptional craftsmen in Istanbul, Turkey and it is intended to bring joy into our homes.
The design was part of the Extraordinary objects collection.
Extraordinary Objects are results of research work on form and function while questioning our relationship and interaction with everyday objects.
These results are not ordinary shapes, but they are ordinary through their function, and they have to be understood before being used.
Each collection is sculptural and has a different material and fabrication method. The designer explored various techniques and materials, from handcrafted glass to laser-cutting metal and 3D printed ceramics. Irina intends to make the visitors curious while inviting them to analyze, question, and interact with these sculptures differently and try to understand their functions.
