Signet Ring
Roman
The oval gem in this ring is carnelian. The intaglio carving depicts a draped woman, with a wreath or diadem over her head, standing right, holding out a globe in her left hand and a long staff or spear in her right. A simple incised line indicates the ground. The gold hoop varies in thickness. The oval bezel is raised, with slightly hunched shoulders.
