| Reverse description | The reverse presents a stylised depiction of an ox rendered in a decorative folk-art idiom, occupying the central field and facing right with an elaborately patterned body featuring geometric and curvilinear motifs. A single inlaid red gemstone (synthetic ruby) is set into the ox's eye, providing vivid colour contrast against the silver surface. The upper field is divided by undulating wave-like bands bearing a frieze of small stylised animals and foliate ornament in the manner of ancient Ukrainian decorative art. The lower field similarly displays a procession of miniature animals in silhouette along a wave border, while interlaced knotwork and circular ornamental medallions fill the right field. The overall composition is executed with contrasting proof and matte finishes to enhance the sculptural depth of the design. |
