About the Item
Estate Art Deco period Egyptian Revival 14K yellow gold dancing satyr and goat Tassie signet ring
Early 20th Century
Provenance: Private East Coast Collection
Size: 6.25 US
Condition: Very Good
Beautiful classical ancient Egyptian style Art Deco period 14K yellow gold Tassie intaglio ring depicting a dancing faun and goat flanked by three stylized gold palm fronds at the shoulders. The geometric rendering of the palm frond motif is one of the key elements of the Egyptian Revival style popular during the Art Deco era after the discovery of Tutankhamen's tomb in 1922.
James Tassie (1735-1799) was a Scottish gem engraver and glyphtographer who perfected a very high standard of creating beautifully detailed opaque glass intaglios. His pieces are sought after by intaglio collectors and are in the permanent collections of the Brittish Museum, the V&A and numeous others worldwide. Glass intaglios originated in Ancient Rome and were often considered more valuable than stone intaglios because the process of creating them was more complex. "Tassie intaglio" is a term widely associated with post 18th century glass intaglios such as the one in this ring.
The dancing Faun and goat motif is linked to the cult of Dyonysius and is the personification of fertility and nature's life force. It embodies the pure, unadulterated joy of living.

Castellani Ancient Roman Agate Intaglio Gold Ring
By Castellani
Located in New York, NY
Castellani® has selected this Ancient Roman Agate Intaglio for the "Cleopatra" Ring Setting.
The intaglio dates to the 3rd to 7th Century.
The intaglio is both black and white agate, which is a hard stone and very good for carving. The agate has two layers of color, black on the top and white at the bottom. The agate intaglio is solid and is one piece. The carver was able to use these two color layers to give dimension and detail. The Column and Angel on the left wings are white and the balance is all black. The Carver knew the material he/she was carving and used this to create this very unique scene.
The intaglio shows two angels standing on either side of a column/pillar looking at the bust of a man on top of the pillar.
The angels are female and male. The bust on the pedestal is of a male.
The intaglio is set below the frame. The frame flairs out to a subtle point on the sides and has a flat surface.
The "Cleopatra" ring design was a style that Castellani created in the 1860's and was inspired by Ancient Roman rings...
