Georgian 15ct Gold Carved Moss Agate Ring with Intaglio of Dionysus, the Greek God of Wine

467P
661 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

An unusual 15ct gold ring that was made circa 1820. It has been set with a rectangular piece of moss agate that has been finely carved with a detailed intaglio of Dionysus, the Greek God of wine. He is holding a wand (thyrsus) of giant fennel covered with vine leaves and topped with a pine cone. Most of the wand is hidden as you can only see the top. The open work shoulders have a scallop shell on either side. It is a little work of art.
