Asset Overview

Women's ring with a very original coffin shape with a snap lid. In its center, on a hinge, there is a figure of a January insurgent with a rifle on his shoulder. After lifting the lid of the coffin, the spring lifts the insurgent. The ring was made during the period of national mourning after the January Uprising and symbolizes the immortal will of Poland to regain independence under the partitions and the revival of the idea of freedom among Poles.
