A silver nose ring forms a thin, open circle. On the left, the end flattens into a small, circular disk with a central puncture. The right end tapers into a flattened point. One half of the band features a smooth surface, while the opposite side transitions into a series of fine, vertical ridges that wrap around the metal, creating a textured pattern along that section.
