CUPID Hand-Painted on Onyx 925 Silver Pendant
About the Item
This pendant showcases a hand-painted depiction of the mythical figure Cupid, masterfully crafted by artist Tommaso Rossi on Onyx. Set in solid silver, it celebrates Cupid, the emblem of love and desire, often portrayed with his iconic bow and quiver of arrows. The deep black of the Onyx serves as a striking night-sky backdrop, highlighting the charm and allure of the divine cherub, while the silver setting adds a heavenly brilliance to the piece.
Cupid, also known as Eros in Greek mythology, is the deity associated with divine love and desire. He is often portrayed as a winged young boy armed with a bow and arrows, which he uses to inspire love and passion in both gods and mortals.
According to a legend, Cupid is believed to be the first-born God, emerging from a silver egg deposited by Nyx, the goddess of the night, at the dawn of time. This unique piece of jewelry captures the beauty and symbolism of this ancient myth while preserving the historical significance of the Roman denarius from 74 BC.
Tommaso Rossi is the talented young artist who creates these exquisite miniature portraits and mythical stories. Working on both marble and hard stone discs, he depicts historical and mythical figures from ancient Greece and Rome, using paints such as enamels, titanium acrylics and graphite. In his amazingly detailed technique, Tommaso employs either an echidna quill or a rose thorn instead of a brush to define the figures on these miniature masterpieces.
Born in Rome in 2000, Tommaso first attended art school on Via Ripetta and then, recognized for his superior talent, he entered the prestigious “Scuola dell’Arte della Medaglia”. This is an elite art school in Rome where only a small number of the finest young artists are carefully chosen for further training in the arts of engraving and plastic modeling.
For more than a century, exceptional artists have acquired additional skills through the use of ancient techniques, innovative methodologies, design and craftsmanship. Importance is also given to art history and conservation. Classical traditions are reimagined, merging Antiquity with present day culture.
