Surrealist Figural Hand Ring

This is a unique figural ring crafted in the shape of a human hand, specifically designed to wrap around the finger. The ring is constructed from a gold-toned metal, likely yellow gold or gold-plated bronze/silver, featuring a polished finish that highlights the anatomical details of the palm and fingers. The hand motif is rendered in a surrealist or avant-garde style, showing four primary fingers and a thumb that curve upward from a central base. A notable feature is a small circular element, possibly a clear gemstone or diamond accent, positioned specifically on the ring finger of the figural hand, creating a 'ring within a ring' effect. The construction appears to be a solid cast piece with a tapering band that integrates seamlessly into the wrist portion of the hand. In terms of condition, there is visible surface wear including minor scratches and a slight dulling of the luster in the recessed areas, which may indicate a vintage age, possibly mid-20th century or later. There are no clear maker's marks visible in the image, but the quality of the casting and the creative design suggest a piece of designer costume jewelry or a custom artisan work rather than mass-produced retail jewelry. The piece demonstrates high level of craftsmanship in its anatomical proportions and the intentional placement of the decorative stone.
