Dal Riada Ring in Silver
Dál Riata was a Gaelic overkingdom spanning what is now northeastern Ireland and western Scotland, divided or connected by the swirling North Sea. Stephen Walker named this ring for that threshold place, and the design reflects it: spirals and Celtic knots interweave continuously around the band, drawing on two of the oldest decorative traditions in Celtic art. The pattern wraps the full circumference with no plain sections, cast in raised relief, each strand sharply defined.
