Vintage Carved Jade Archers Ring with Chinese Bull Head Design

Vintage Carved Jade Archers Ring with Chinese Bull Head Design-
The most common use of a thumb ring throughout history has been its role in archery. When drawing a bow using a thumb draw, the thumb is hooked around the bowstring just beneath the arrow and its grip reinforced with the first (sometimes second) finger. The bowstring rests against the inner pad of the archer's thumb and the thumb ring protects the skin. The bowstring rests against the flat of the ring when the bow is drawn. Today, thumb rings are used by archers practicing styles from most of Asia and some regions of northern Africa.
