Lion Rolling Ball Engraved Silver Ring

The "Lion Rolling an Embroidered Ball" is a classic auspicious pattern: the lion symbolizes majesty and protection, warding off evil and misfortune. The ball is no ordinary toy, it was a variation of the ancient Chinese saying "Taiping Youxiang" (meaning "peaceful and prosperous") or a "lucky object." Its rolling motion symbolizes "good fortune is coming," and the overall pattern conveys the auspicious wish of "warding off disasters, welcoming blessings, a smooth life, and prosperity and good fortune."
The curling ring pictured above is made of S990 fine silver, weighing approximately 9.4g and measuring approximately 17.4mm wide. This vintage silver curling ring features a core craftsmanship element: the "rolling" element. Through hammering, curling, and shaping the silver, a smooth, linear texture is achieved. Combined with the three-dimensional engraving of the "Lion Rolling an Embroidered Ball," the lion's mane and the texture of the ball are distinctly layered. The ring combines the matte finish of vintage silver jewelry with the refined details of traditional patterns, embodying the fusion of traditional metal forging and engraving techniques.
