Описание

A greek hellenistic gold engraved ring. Allegorical female figure with a laurel wreath.

4th century B.C.

Diam. 20mm; ring size 14 x 19 mm; 6,70 gr.


Kindred type. Plain hoop, rounded without and flatten within expending with broader shoulders into a thin circular bezel with engraved design; allegorical female figure standing right and wearing a folded chiton wrapped under the hips with a vaporous coat held by her right forearm. She is leaning on a column and holding in her left hand a laurel wreath. The edge of the bezel is marked like a coinage mint. Very good state of conservation.
