Victorian Tiger's Eye Intaglio Gold Ring inv 5839 stacking bandThis finely carved tiger's eye intaglio beckons the eye! The classic profile of a matron is clear and mesmerizing. When carving is done inwards, such as this, it's called 'intaglio' as opposed to 'cameo'. Therefore, although the methods and materials are similar, intaglios can be used to make a raised impression in wax for sealing documents. The antique gold setting only accentuates the warm honey tones of the stone. This is truly a lovely piece.
