这幅精美的凹雕雕刻在一块亮蓝色和绿色条纹马赛克玻璃上,由不同颜色的单片在高温下层压而成,使它们融合在一起。其表面上雕刻着一匹马和一名骑马的战士,细节丰富;这位留着胡子的战士全副武装——戴着一个大冠冕头盔,胸甲,背上背着一面大盾牌,左手握着马缰绳。这幅精美的凹雕于 1989 年被镶嵌成一枚戒指,本身就是一件引人注目的可穿戴艺术作品。椭圆形表圈以丰富的 22K 黄金铸造而成,与一个单独制作的圆环相连,圆环上镶嵌着铂金和黄金编织的花丝,这是拜占庭晚期罗马戒指的典型风格。柄部内侧刻有:c1989 Ariadne 22KT,Tim Koheki 1-29。
马赛克玻璃制品的制作工艺费时费力。首先制作出彩色的马赛克玻璃棒,然后将其拉伸以缩小图案,然后将其横向切成小块圆形或纵向切成条状。然后将其放在一起形成一个扁平的圆形,加热直至融合,然后将得到的圆盘下垂或放入模具中,使制品成型。几乎所有铸造制品的边缘和内部都需要抛光,以消除制造过程中造成的瑕疵;外部通常不需要进一步抛光,因为退火炉的热量会产生闪亮的“火抛光”表面。
有关此类凹雕的例子,请参阅:Marshall, FH;大英博物馆古物部希腊、伊特鲁里亚和罗马指环目录(伦敦,1907 年)图 12,编号 396 和 Spier, Jeffrey“古代宝石和指环,保罗盖蒂博物馆藏品目录”(加利福尼亚,1992 年)第 145-152 页。
状况:完好,整体状况良好。非常精美且罕见的典范。
尺寸:美国戒指尺寸 5 1/2(英国=L、德国=16、瑞士=11 3/4)
