The bezel setting is flush, minimal, holding a large oval Dur-E Najaf quartz cabochon of pale cream translucency. A pronounced dendritic inclusion runs through the stone's center, dark brown and lance-shaped, suspended beneath the polished dome surface. The underside of the bezel shows accumulated darkening at the seat joint. Shank interior is smooth, cast rather than fabricated, with faint surface micro-pitting consistent with age. Dur-E Najaf stones, sourced historically from the Najaf region of Iraq, carry significance in Islamic talismanic tradition and were commonly set in this manner for devotional wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCONSTRUCTION DETAILS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal: 925 sterling silver, cast construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone: Dur-E Najaf quartz cabochon, oval, pale cream with central dendritic inclusion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting: Flush bezel, no prongs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatina: Deep oxidation on shank, abraded silver at shoulder ridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: US 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight feel: Substantial, dense shank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54001363648825,"sku":"RG62","price":720.0,"currency_code":"MYR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0982\/0160\/0313\/files\/RG62EDIT_1.png?v=1784104957","url":"https:\/\/frakture.shop\/products\/antique-dur-e-najaf-iraq-quartz-925-silver-ring","provider":"FRAK \/ TURE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
