Descrizione

A fine roman amethyst cameo mounted on a modern gold ring. Mask of Bacchus.

1st century B.C. - 1st century A.D.

Cameo : 13 x 15 x 8 mm ring diam : 17,5 mm 7,19 g

The face of the young god has a rounded shape, with hair gathered and adorned with ivy leaves. The Bacchic subject fits well with the variety of the stone, a splendid mirror-polished dark purple amethyst. The style feels the influence of the late Hellenistic Greek style. The work is carried out in high relief and is mounted in an elegant modern gold ring with an open work bezel (floral structure). Wear marks. Rare.
