Carnelian - Reverse Intaglio - Athena's Owl
A classic styled red carnelian round polished stone with Athena's owl carved reverse intaglio style. This is the owl as appears on the well known silver tetradrachm coin from Ancient Greece. The size of the piece is around that of an Australian gold sovereign coin so I think it can be worn as a signet ring stone quite well. This style of carving is often used for signet ring stones that function also as wax seals.
