Sterling Silver Minoan Dolphin Ring (Adjustable)
This oxidized sterling silver ring features a Minoan Dolphin inspired by a classical Greek Fresco. The dolphin spirals around the ring. This is an open ring and is adjustable. The ring is set to an approximate size 7 but it adjusts to a size 4 through 9!
Oxidized silver is produced naturally when oxygen reacts with silver. Precious sterling silver reacts to oxygen very easily, and and will have a darker appearance. Oxidized sterling silver jewelry has a nice contrast and vintage feel as the finish lacks shine and sparkle.

History
Minoan Dolphin Fresco painted on the wall of the Queen's Hall in the Palace of Knossos in Crete. Dolphins appear in a number of Greek myths, invariably as helpers of humankind. Dolphins also seem to have been important to the Minoans, judging by artistic evidence from the ruined palace at Knossos. Dolphins were sacred to both Aphrodite and Apollo, also the messengers of Poseidon, Greek god of the sea, and sometimes did errands for him as well.
