About the Item

Weight: 8,30 gr
L’intaglio del II secolo e di produzione romana, raffigura il profilo di una figura maschile che indossa una corona radiata, chiamata così perché connotata dalla presenza di un numero variabile di punte acuminate, solitamente 12, simbolo dei mesi dell’anno. I romani attribuivano questa corona agli dèi e agli eroi deificati, di conseguenza, è possibile supporre che l’intaglio raffiguri Helios, dio sole greco. La corona all’antica, però, venne utilizzata anche da alcuni imperatori romani come Caligola, Traiano o Marco Aurelio, quale simbolo di divinità. In definitiva, si può presumere che l’intaglio raffiguri un imperatore, verosimilmente Traiano o Marco Aurelio, sebbene, in mancanza di ulteriori attributi sia impossibile un’identificazione certa. L’intaglio presenta un’elevatissima qualità che permette una lettura chiara del soggetto ed è impreziosito da una montatura antica con pergamene laterali.
The intaglio of the second century of Roman production, depicts the profile of a male figure wearing a radiated crown, so called because characterized by the presence of a variable number of pointed tips, usually 12, symbol of the months of the year. The Romans attributed this crown to deities and deified heroes, therefore it is possible to assume that the carving depicts Helios, the Greek sun god. The old-fashioned crown, however, was also used by some Roman emperors such as Caligula, Trajan or Marcus Aurelius, as a symbol of divinity. Ultimately, it can be assumed that the carving depicts an emperor, probably Trajan or Marcus Aurelius, although in the absence of further attributes a certain identification is impossible. The carving has a very high quality that allows a clear reading of the subject and is embellished with an ancient frame with side scrolls.

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...
