22K Gold Ring w/ Roman Nicolo Intaglio of Fortuna
Product Description
Roman, Imperial Period, ca. 2nd century CE. A beautiful intaglio of an ovoid form, hand-carved from delicate blue-and-white nicolo stone and set inside the bezel of a modern 22K gold ring. The top of the intaglio bears an incised depiction of Fortuna (Greek Tyche), the goddess of fortune and the personification of luck. She dons a draped chiton that flows from her shoulders as well as her signature modius atop her head, holds a sheath of wheat in one hand, and grasps the horn of plenty in her other hand. The gold ring has a circular shank and a thick body atop which the bezel is situated.
Wearable as shown. Nicolo stone intaglio is ancient, and gold ring is modern. Very light abrasions to stone intaglio, otherwise intact and very good. Iconography still visible on intaglio.
