Antique Intaglio of a Bearded Man with Laurel Wreath Dimensions: 2.6 x 2.1 cm

This finely carved antique intaglio features a classical male profile, distinguished by a full beard and adorned with a laurel wreath — a symbol of honor, wisdom, and victory. The figure likely represents a Roman philosopher, poet, or deity, echoing the neoclassical fascination with antiquity.

Expertly engraved into a warm-toned stone, the cameo-style carving showcases exceptional detail, particularly in the hair and laurel leaves. The reverse is smooth, suggesting it was once mounted in a ring or worn as a personal seal.

Ideal for collectors, jewelry designers, or history enthusiasts, this piece is a timeless tribute to classical beauty and ancient symbolism.
