David Hensel is a fascinating sculptor, painter and jewellery maker. He received some not altogether welcome publicity some years ago when the Royal Academy Summer Show exhibited a plinth without the sculpture that should have stood on it. He has made a number of commissions for me and my family, but he is now concentrating on sculpture and painting, so this ring is amongst the last pieces of jewellery he has made, each piece of course unique.
The face is carved from walrus ivory, whiter than appears in the photos, set in oxidised and partially gilded silver with gold pin-point eyes, signed in monogram on the reverse. The head is 1 1/8 inches: 28 mm crown to chin, and the finger size UK M: USA 5

N92A An attractive and wearable man’s ring from around 3rd/4th century AD inset with a carnelian intaglio of a devotee making an offering. The gold is of high standard, hence its beautiful buttery yellow colour. As with all this type of ring, the shank is hollow and is filled with wax or pitch, so sizing it is not practicable. There are inevitably, after nearly 2000 years, a few minor dents and scratches, and I regret to say I do not have a copy of the original invoice.
The ring is UK size R : US size 8 3/4
