More info

From Knossos to Santorini, in all parts of the known Minoan civilization and across the Aegean sea, art-work featuring dolphins is considered as some of the most characteristic of Minoan culture. The peace-loving Minoans considered the dolphin as a highly sacred animal and frequently depicted the playful interaction between man and dolphin.

This ring is an intaglio ring, meaning that the carving is inwards and will make a positive seal or signet impression if pressed in wax.
