The gold ring worn on a woman’s little finger is decorated with an engraved design of a flying duck. Its expressive nature testifies to superb mastership. Apparently the image of a duck which may exist in every kind of environment - underwater, aloft and aground - was not chosen by accident, and was intended to emphasize the high rank of the owner.
