A Greek Sardonyx Cameo of a New Comedy Mask,

Late Hellenistic Period, Circa 2ND-1ST Century B.C.

The banded stone cut in three layers of brown, white and orange, with a New Comedy character mask, with expansive mouth, bulging articulated eyes and snub nose, heavy wrinkled brows set in a deep frown above, tufts of curling hair either side of his face and a long curling beard and moustache, drilled laterally in antiquity for mounting, mounted in a late 18th Century gold two-part collectors mount.

Cameo: .6/8 in. (2.3 cm.) long; with mount 1 ¼ in. (3.2 cm.) long max.
