Description
The engagement ring of the Serbian King Stefan Radoslav (reigned 1228-1233) was made in gold in 1219. On the "head" of this engagement ring an inscription in the Greek language, written in verse, is engraved, with which he addresses his wife Anna Angelina Komnene Doukaina, the daughter of the ruler of Epirus Theodore Komnenos Doukas. The ring was made in the Byzantine manner, probably in Thessalonica.
The exceptionality of this ring is even greater, when one considers that this is the only preserved example that bears the names of members of the imperial and royal families in the act of engagement. Today, the ring is kept in the National Museum in Belgrade.
