Description
Roman, circa 1st - 2nd century AD. An ancient Roman oval carnelian gem engraved with a profile head of the goddess Tyche, wearing her traditional mural crown of the city walls and towers, her hair falling in tresses at her neck. Set in a bespoke and handmade modern 18 carat gold pendant. Tyche (ΤΥΧΗ, τύχη in Greek), the Greek goddess of fortune, originated in the 4th century BC. Images of the goddess were worn as jewellery to protect the wearer. These are rare and unique ancient miniature artworks, whilst they are designed to be worn we suggest avoiding contact with cosmetics, perfumes, chlorine, and chemicals. Clean with warm water and pat dry with a clean, soft cloth. When not in use, keep your jewellery in its box to protect it from dust and other debris.
