Antique Sardonyx Intaglio Men’s Ring
This distinguished men’s ring is crafted in 14K yellow gold and set with an antique sardonyx intaglio, carved in classical profile. The finely engraved gemstone displays the layered tonal contrast characteristic of sardonyx, a material long favored for intaglios due to its depth, durability, and visual clarity.
Intaglio gemstones have been used since antiquity as personal seals and symbols of identity, status, and intellect. The classical profile carved into this sardonyx reflects a long tradition inspired by Greco-Roman art, which experienced renewed appreciation in later historical periods. Rings of this type were often worn as signet rings, combining artistic expression with personal significance.
The gold mounting is solid and well-proportioned, designed to complement the intaglio while allowing it to remain the focal point. The natural surface wear visible on the stone is consistent with age and confirms its authenticity as an antique engraved gem.
A refined and timeless piece, this ring embodies the enduring appeal of classical design interpreted through antique craftsmanship.
