Description
Exquisite antique lapel pin / tie pin in yellow gold 625 / 15 Kt (stamped and guaranteed), set with a rectangular agate cameo with a fine and detailed representation of Hercules in profile to the right. The cameo sits in a smooth frame mount with cord decoration. The bearded Hercules carries his Attibut on his head, the fur of the Nemean lion, which was considered invulnerable. The opened mouth of the lion lies at the back of the head, its eyes are closed. The curly mane reaches down to the neck and the fur is braided at the neck. Hercules was famous for his strength and was even admitted to Olympus.
The high-quality Hard Stone lapel pin was created in England around 1840 and is a very nice example of the antique reception of the 19th century. A recommendable collector's item!
