Descrizione

A roman carnelian intaglio set in a gold stick pin. Apollo.

2nd century A.D.

intaglio 6x9 mm; overall 10x15 mm; length 70 mm; 3,58 gr.

The intaglio shows the portrait of a male character turned left. He is characterized by young features, wide open eye, straight short nose, semi-opened mouth. He wears a cloak. His hair adorned with a band or tenia. The youthful features and the hair ornament suggest it may be a representation of the god Apollo. Slight wear marks on the surface of the stone. Nice mirror polishing for the engraving. The gold stick pin is composed of a large oval box-setting with three twisted gold wires. Two gold hoops on top of the bezel for the attach of the pin. On the back, open-worked section, with a large oval gold sheet attached to the rest by 8 gold heart-shaped clasps. The style reminds Castellani gold mountings.
