Ankh Ring
A sculptural interpretation of the ankh motif, an ancient Egyptian symbol of life, this ring pairs gold-plated brass with turquoise—a stone associated with fertility and vegetation for its blue-green color. The ring’s tapered band references refined examples of ancient jewelry in The Met’s Egyptian Art collection, while the carved stone evokes various amulets found throughout the Museum’s galleries. A fusion of symbolism and modern craftsmanship, this ring embodies the spirit of continuity.
