About the Item

This pendant features a hand-painted image of the Roman god Mercury, expertly painted by the artist Tommaso Rossi on Egyptian Jasper. Set in a 925 silver frame, the design highlights Mercury’s iconic winged helmet and caduceus, symbolizing speed, communication, and commerce. The rich, earthy tones of the Egyptian Jasper complement the detailed artwork, while the sterling silver setting adds a refined finish. Combining mythology with craftsmanship, this pendant offers a unique and meaningful piece of jewelry with historical significance. In Greek mythology, Hermes, or Mercury in Roman tradition, was a versatile deity known as the messenger of the gods and guardian of travelers. He safeguarded journeys, facilitated communication, and presided over oratory, poetry, literature, commerce, and cunning. Hermes' iconic symbols included the Caduceus, a staff with entwined serpents symbolizing peace and commerce, and Talari, winged sandals granting him exceptional speed. His magical cloak rendered him invisible, adding to his mystique. A multifaceted figure, Hermes was highly revered for his roles across divine and mortal realms. 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.
