Castellani GIA 20.64ct Sapphire Hand Carved Intaglio 18kt Ring
About the Item
Castellani® commissioned to have this 20.64ct sapphire be hand carved as an intaglio of the mythical character Neptune /Poseidon. Neptune was to the Ancient Romans the god that controlled the waters, winds and storms. The Ancient Greeks called him Poseidon.
The hand carving shows the subject’s face, hair and eyes in very great detail. This large natural sapphire is Sri Lanka origin and No Heat, devoid of any enhancement. All gemological information is on a GIA Gemological Report. The GIA classifies the shape as an Oval Intaglio. The cornflower blue color and the sapphire’s crystal transparency lets the carving be seen easily and is very noticeable.
Bezel set into the “Cleopatra” ring mounting. The "Cleopatra" ring design was a style that Castellani created in the 1860's and was inspired by Ancient Roman rings with this outline.
We have used the Castellani® Ancient Terra-Cotta Red™ 18kt gold, with a bright high polish.
Both the Castellani and Double C Logo Plates are affixed to the inside of the gallery.
The measurements: Intaglio: 16.20x14.19x10.25mm
Ring: 20mm Front to Back 24mm Across 10mm Height
The ring has a high profile of brightly polished gold.
Ring Size: 7
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.

- Castellani Ancient Roman Agate Intaglio Gold RingBy CastellaniLocated in New York, NYCastellani® 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...Category
