That is an ancient early american warrior feather ring!. It was made to represent (oddly enough) how many scalps a warrior had collected. Each warrior would receive just one ring after his first turkey kill with bow and arrow. They'd get the ring the way you see it, molded carefully of molten nearly tarnish proof sterling silver and each feather would be hollow.
If the warrior scalped an invading soldier the head of the tribe would take the ring and exchange the scalp for the rarely ever seen liquid ruby. To melt the rubies they'd have to get to extreme heats and it could take a year of hides to get the fire hot enough. Once the ruby was melted they'd pour it into one of the feathers and then ironically fan it with Turkey feathers tied together to cool it.
If a warrior ever filled all the feathers on his ring he'd become the new head of the tribe and his first duty would be to learn the ancient art of ruby melting.
It is rumored that he who possesses the ring especially if it's worn, will have great luck though they almost always develop an allergy to feathers.
It us customary for anyone that finds such a ring to give a water detector to anyone most familiar with said ring. This is said to break the curse of the feather allergy.
Ok this is a great sign that I'm too tired to still be up Good night! Congrats on the ring find!

Looks like a set of those old ice cream boats you make a banana split in
Haha I was so involved with the idea of melting ruby that I missed the humor at the end! You got me!
I am still nauseous from the thought of the smell of burning animal hides!
