A beautifully created sterling silver signet ring, set with an intaglio carved in the style of an ancient Greek seal. The scene is a faithful recreation of a Hellenistic ring featuring Aphrodite and Eros, rich with symbolism and timeless elegance.
The intaglio depicts Aphrodite, goddess of love and beauty, shown nude and gracefully leaning against a small pillar where her draped garments rest in soft folds. A pose often found in ancient Greek art that reflects both vulnerability and divine allure. To her right stands a tiny figure of Eros, reaching up toward her.
Set into a smooth, weighty silver mount, the ring has a strong, clean profile that beautifully frames the carved scene. A wearable ring with huge influence from thousands of years ago.
