Production time for this piece is 12 weeks Can be made in any size ranging from 6-12. Chavdar Chushev is an artist, restorer, jeweler, and master of the ancient art of gem carving. His extensive knowledge of gemstones and precious metals is complimented by a familiarity with more unusual materials, such as exotic woods, organic gems, and fossils. This unparalleled expertise accumulated over 40 years and distinct creative vision have made him one of the most respected jewelry designers in his field. Elaborately carved gems (intaglios & cameos) were a staple of luxury in antiquity and often incised onto semi-precious stones such as carnelian or jasper. In the form of a talisman they served as extraordinary symbols of status and in certain cases, they were believed to provide divine protection. They were also employed as a form of personal identification when pressed in hot wax or clay. Rulers, nobles and wealthy merchants sought, collected and traded these fascinating miniature works of art. At the dawn of gem engraving, artisans used crude tools and techniques to etch rudimentary designs onto stones. Throughout the ages, these carvers developed new tools and grew intimately familiar with the gems they adorned. Today, we utilize a blend of ancient and modern technologies to allow the metals, gems and organics to freely merge in a bold and harmonious installation. The intricacies of the expertly engraved motifs and natural splendor of the stones makes each gem uniquely special and your very own modern heirloom.

Antique Imperial Russian Minerva Ring Intaglio Red Onyx 56/14K Gold ØUS 5.75
Located in SE
Antique Russian Unisex Signet Intaglio Ring dating to ca. ca. late XIX - early XX cent. in solid 14K Rose / Red Gold with claw set fine intaglio on Red Onyx depicting Greek Athena (Roman Minerva ) or Anat (Canaanite ) or Neith (Egyptian) - Goddess of poetry, medicine, wisdom, commerce, weaving, and the crafts. Hand - carved with great accuracy and attention to detail on solid stone of irregular cut ca. 16 mm x 11 mm x 3 mm deep / ca 13 ct. This ring is unisex and is suitable for Men and Women if the size is right. Made in Imperial Russia ca. late XIX - early XX cent. Hallmarks partially Hallmarked with Imperial Russian 56 (14K) fragmented hallmarks used before 1908, parts of other original hallmarks were removed / damaged in the process of past resizing. Apparently tin was used to solder the band, it became darkened / patinated with time on both sides. Used fine condition, cameo is secure in trident shaped claws. Stone with very minor signs of wear. Decades old patina on metal that I didn't dare to polish off. Size : Ø 9 US scale / 18.89 mm.Resizing is possible . Weight: 4.1 grams. P.S Fragmented hallmarks on old Russian rings made at Imperial period is a common feature because of the way these rings used to be hallmarked. Very often Russian Jewelers would hallmark the narrowest part of ring's band, both outside and inside and as a result such hallmarks would often become naturally damaged as a result of natural wear ( if placed outside ) or as a result of custom (careless) resizing that could often be necessary if the ring changed the owner, say after 30 - 40 years of its appearance when such hallmarks were still relatively common and seemed not so old to care about so much .. Jewelers would often cut the narrowest part of the band to make it smaller or bigger... Thus a lot of Russian rings have fragmented or lost hallmarks and that makes proper ID difficult or impossible. Swedish Jewelers would always hallmark the internal side of the band closer to the crown and such areas were normally not touched in the process sizing and thus most of Swedish rings...
