This 17th-century German ring is a technical marvel – the inner disc revolves, allowing the wearer to change which design is displayed. An intricately engraved hunting scene is revealed on the side of the disc when turned.

On one side is a portrait of the Greek god Apollo, and on the other are two figures – the figure on the right may represent Bacchus, god of wine.

Swivel rings were fashionable in the 17th and 18th centuries. Most revolved around a central pivot, but this ring is unusual – the disc isn’t fixed and can be turned around at any angle.
