Additional Info:  Rich in symbolism and classical elegance, this 14k yellow gold ring features a finely carved carnelian intaglio depicting Hygieia — the ancient Greek goddess of health, healing, and hygiene. The deep colored gemstone is hand-carved with intricate detail, capturing the serene grace of this revered figure, often shown holding a serpent, a timeless emblem of medicine and renewal. The warm glow of the polished yellow gold setting complements the carnelian’s rich hue, while the bezel-style mounting highlights the intaglio’s artistry and offers a smooth, comfortable fit. A beautiful fusion of mythology, craftsmanship, and timeless design, this ring is ideal for lovers of antique-inspired jewelry, history, or meaningful talismans. Please note the condition of the stone as well as the color. It looks black due to no opening behind the stone for light to shine through. Under the correct lighting you can see the warm orangish hue but the lighting has to be just right.
