The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Greenish metal ring by artist Ring. The ring is made of a thick, greenish metal wire that is coiled in a spiral shape. The wire is textured and rough to the eye, with visible imperfections and blemishes on its surface. It has a rough, uneven patina. The ring is incomplete, with one end cut off and the other end broken. The background is a plain gray surface.
