Gold Ring from Iraq

Gold Ring from Iraq

This gold ring was a gift to Shams Al-Badry's mother by Shams's grandmother. Ms. Al-Badry's mother received the ring while in the Saudi Arabia refugee camp, and was sent through a third party. The ring was one of very few possessions that her mother was able to retain through her move to the United States.
