Castellani Ancient Banded Agate Peacock Intaglio Gold Ring
About the Item
A lovely Ancient Roman gem. The orange and white banded agate intaglio is over 2000 years old. In tondo (carved on the horizontal), we find a peacock between two cornucopias and above it a cross.
These three Ancient Roman symbols carved into this Intaglio representing: Immortality; Eternal Life; Abundance and Nourishment. The white banding is natural to this agate and gives it a unique appearance.
Set into the Castellani® Vesta Style Ring in Castellani Ancient Terra-Cotta™ Red 18kt Gold. The tight braided gold design surrounds the perimeter of the ring below the intaglio. The ring has a very low profile while wearing. The weight of the ring is 7.5 grams and dimensions are 18mm Across 15mm Front to Back 5mm Height. The intaglio is Intaglio:14mm Length 12mm width. The Castellani brand plate as well as the Double C's Logo plate affixed to the gallery of the ring.
Castellani’s Jewellery from the 19th Century is in museums:
British Museum; Victoria & Albert Museum; Metropolitan Museum of Art; The Smithsonian’s Cooper Hewitt Museum to name a few); exhibitions as well as in private collections.
Fortunato Pio Castellani can be called the "Father of Archeological Revival Jewellery". In the mid 1800's in Rome, Castellani had the entree to visit the Ancient Etruscan ruins. He was able to study these Ancient designs as well as other Ancient Mediterranean civilizations’ jewellery and started to create and re-design under his brand.

View AllCastellani 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...
