Iran unveils world’s smallest ring
Iran has unveiled world’s smallest ring at an exhibition held at the Historical and Natural History Treasure Museum of the country’s Zanjan Province.
“The bronze ring is seven millimeters thick and dates back to about 2,200 years ago and the Parthian era,” Zanjan’s Historical and Natural History Treasure Museum director Morteza Samimifard told ISNA.
“The ring was purchased from a collector a year ago and will be returned to the Zanjan Province treasury after being displayed at the museum for a week,” he added.
Samimifard also said that there was an inscription on the ring that experts were trying to read. It seems, however, that the unique ring belonged to an aristocrat, he noted.
The relic has not been priced yet and there is no information about the place it was found, Samimifard said.
