Practiced by early civilizations in Mesopotamia, Assyria and Phoenicia, it later flourished in Greece and Rome, though the intricate techniques of intaglio carving required years of dedicated practice. Intaglio gems continued to appear in fashionable jewelry into the 19th and 20th centuries. This particular example displays a high-standing family’s elegant coat of arms with the Latin phrase “certum pete finem” beneath it. Originating from a line in the Roman poet Horace's Epistles, the phrase translates to “aim for a sure end” and symbolizes determination and a sense of purpose.
