GREEK GOLD RING WITH EROS AND NIKE Ca. 400 - 300 BC. A gold ring with a smooth, plain flat-section hoop that widens to form an oval-shaped bezel. The bezel holds a relief carving of two figures, likely Nike and Eros, standing facing each other, dressed in flowing robes. Eros is depicted with wings and presents a circular object to Nike, who holds a cornucopia, symbolising abundance. The design is subtle yet detailed, with hints of drapery and posture evident in the figures. For similar see: The British Museum, Museum number 1867,0508.402.
