A rare roman italic banded agate intaglio. Zoomorphic lyre. <br />1st century B.C. <br />10 x 13 x 2 mm <br /> <br />This elegant musical instrument is composed with a turtle shell for the sound-box and two dolphins as raised arms. On top, a globe. Probably referred to Orpheus lyre, made by Hermes from a turtle shell. It also can be referred to the myth of the lyre-player Arion frequently depicted ridding a dolphin. The intaglio is finely engraved with the typical globular elements and mirror polished. Beautiful variety of stone. Slight wear marks.
