This precious ring of the 18th century ring is made of gold and has the central part – in the shape of a four-leaf clover – decorated with blue enamels and a border with spheres of decreasing size. It is a type of rings that was used, presumably, to administer the poison in a discreet way, in fact, the four central petals are provided with a hinge that allows them to be easily opened.
