Rare Archaic Etruscan scarab in carnelian. Chariot and Satyr mask.


Rare intaglio on Archaic Etruscan scarab in carnelian, set on a modern golden pin. On the flat surface there is the depiction of the chariot with three horses (one section is damaged and the chipping is integrated). On the rear, a satyr mask is engraved in cameo technic. This specimen is very interesting for the number of the horses and for the engraved rear. Signs of wear. Mounted in gold during the 19th century. References: G.M. Richter, Catalogue of engraved gems. Greek-Etruscan-Roman, The Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York), p. 43, n. 164, pl. XXVII. mm 18 x 18 x 9; gr. 4,69
6th -5th century B.C.
