A fine chalcedony intaglio set in a contemporary gold brooch with diamonds. Helmeted bust of Athena.
Early 18th century.
Stone 19 x 22 mm; mounting 25 x 30 mm; 19,92 gr.
Head of Minerva, in profile to the left, with a finely decorated helmet with a dragon and a mask on the visor. The hair falling to the shoulder, engraved with great art. The profile is characterized by a slightly open mouth, inspired by hellenistic models. The gem is set in a contemporary gold jewel with diamonds. An almost identical intaglio, both in style and in subject, is in Florence, Palazzo Pitti (Museo degli Argenti), from the Collezioni Granducali. Probably these two gems were engraved by the same engraver. Le Gemme dei Medici al Museo degli Argenti. Cammei e Intagli nelle collezioni di Palazzo Pitti, p. 397, inv. Gemme del 1921 n. 217, GFSSPMF 297136 (Rock crystal intaglio set in a gold frame).
