Its domed face is carved as a scarab beetle, with incised details defining the thorax and wing cases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn the stone over to discover an intaglio-carved classical figure within a finely hatched oval border. The winged figure steps forward, extending one arm while holding a suspended vessel in the other hand. The recessed carving offers a different view of this small, intriguing object.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design follows the Etruscan tradition of scarab-shaped engraved gems. It may be a 19th-century Italian Grand Tour or archaeological revival piece; this is a stylistic attribution, and its precise date and origin remain unconfirmed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSymbolism\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn ancient Egypt, the scarab was associated with Khepri, the god of the rising sun. The beetle’s movement of a rounded ball was linked to the sun’s daily journey, making the scarab a symbol of renewal, rebirth and protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe winged figure on the reverse recalls classical imagery associated with Eros and the Etruscan Lasa figures, some of whom carry vessels for perfumed oils. Its precise identity remains uncertain, but the image invites associations with love, beauty and care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe carnelian has been incorporated into a later bracelet setting with two natural turquoise beads and 23 agarwood beads, strung on elastic. The turquoise provides a vivid contrast, while the dark brown wood brings warmth and natural texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDetails\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Central stone: Natural carnelian\u003cbr\u003e• Design: Carved scarab with a classical figural intaglio on the reverse\u003cbr\u003e• Style: Etruscan Revival; possibly 19th-century Italian Grand Tour\u003cbr\u003e• Carnelian dimensions: Approximately 18 × 14 × 8mm\u003cbr\u003e• Turquoise: Two natural beads, approximately 4.3mm in diameter\u003cbr\u003e• Agarwood: 23 beads, approximately 7.4 × 6.8mm each\u003cbr\u003e• Total bracelet weight: Approximately 7.23g\u003cbr\u003e• Internal diameter: Approximately 6cm at rest\u003cbr\u003e• Construction: Elasticated, without a clasp\u003cbr\u003e• Assembly: The turquoise, agarwood beads and elastic stringing are later additions\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease check the measurements carefully for fit.
