Lion ring size 23 x 20 mm made of 18 kt yellow or white gold and also in 925 silver or gilded silver versions depicting the famous Venetian winged lion Moeca. History: in Veneto the word moeca has two meanings linked to tradition: it is associated both with the effigy of the winged lion of San Marco, symbol of the city, which rises from the waters (el leon en moeca), and with the local crab (common riparian crab Carcinus Mediterraneus) in the moulting phase also called fried soft crabs (fried moeche). This delicacy is also called the Venetian nugget. To request information, use the “send a request for this product” button, call 041 5287549 or send an email to info@webjewels.it.
