About the Item

SILVER AND GOLD BISHOP MEN'S RING WITH CARNELIAN INTAGLIO Ring size: 8 ¾ Top size: 16 mm x 14 mm Weight: 16.89 gr. The carving is made of gold and silver and has a carnelian carving depicting 4 religious symbols, linked to Christianity: fire, symbol of the Holy Spirit and purification; the pastoral stick symbolizes Christ "the Good Shepherd", so called in the parable of John 10:1–21, where Jesus is described as a shepherd willing to sacrifice his life for his sheep, in addition, the pastoral staff is used by bishops as successors of the apostles, with the task of guiding the Christian community. The third symbol that appears is that of an ampoule, which can be associated with the relic that would contain the blood of Christ and which is kept in many places. Finally, the carving ends with the engraving of a Eucharistic host, a symbol of the body of Christ, a visible and concrete symbol of his presence.

Exceptionally rare and fashioned in the 2nd or 3rd century CE, the carved carnelian gemstone at the center of this ring hails from the Roman Empire.

Each taking a classical contrapposto stance, the leftmost god appears crowned with laurels and grasping a staff, while the other appears nude. At their feet, an infant stretches his arms upward toward the divine figures. The crimson carnelian, more than a millennia-old, is set into a later 14K gold ring setting...
