Welcome to Sea Green Mermaid!

For sale is a 18k yellow gold intaglio  pendant with the image of the winged Greek goddess Hebe. HEBE was the goddess of youth and the cupbearer of the gods who served ambrosia at the heavenly feast. She was also the patron goddess of the young bride and an attendant of the goddess Aphrodite. An alternative interpretation of the figure would be that she represents the astrological sign of Aquarius (the water bearer).

This elegant and one of a kind pendant features the seated of Hebe in raised gold, quietly examining a pitcher of ambrosia. Her hair is pulled back in a bun and she is wearing an elegant dress. Her tiny wings mark her as otherworldly.
The oval pendant is flat, edged with a twisted rope design of raised gold. Below Hebe at the bottom of the pendant is a small square rhodolite garnet bezel set in a diamond-shape. Above Hebe's head is a trio of Bali beads near the bail. The pendant evokes the typical Italian intaglio design. 
The pendant has a large attached bail to accommodate your chain. This pendant would be attractive on a man or a woman.  This pendant is extremely versatile.  It is an excellent gift (or self-gift!) to anyone with an interest in Greek mythology. It would also make a fine gift for astrologically interested people, Aquarians, or anyone who loves the beauty and elegance of the water bearer symbol. This antique piece truly stands out for its beauty and quality.

 

The item shows normal wear for a pre-owned piece (light scratches, dings, dents and scuff marks.)
