P-600

€25.24
In ancient Greece, the gorgoneion was an apotropaic amulet (magical defense mechanism to ward off evil or protect itself from it).
Induced the horror by showing the head of the Gorgon Medusa. It was related to Zeus and Athena, as it was said that they both wore an earring with this motif and their Aegis shield.
A disc or molded circular piece in which a thin sheet is welded with the representation of a Gorgona Medusa. This embossed sheet is probably welded to the disc by interdiffusion technique. The decorative motif shows the essential characteristics of the Gorgon: troubled hair, penetrating gaze, open mouth and snakes coming out of its neck.
Made of brass and freshwater pearls, hooks of golden plated sterling silver.
Coin + pearl height= 3.3cm
Coin diameter= 1.8cm
