Overview:
Early Islamic bronze ring featuring a rectangular engraved bezel with recessed Arabic inscription. The script appears to represent a short devotional word, possibly “Iman” meaning Faith.

Rings of this small size were commonly used as protective amulets, either worn by children or suspended from cord or textile. In the 9th–10th centuries, devotional inscriptions invoking faith, divine protection, or blessing were frequently carried in personal objects.

The thick bezel and simple band construction are characteristic of early Islamic talismanic rings associated with devotional and mystical traditions, including early Sufi environments.

A strong personal object of faith from the Abbasid-era Islamic world.
