The ram’s head draws upon the "Horn of Plenty" from Greek mythology, the vessel which pours forth every conceivable treasure in endless abundance. Suspended below the brooch are a distinctive golden amphora and two orbs. The entire piece is handcrafted in 14K gold with fine granulation. The signed case originates from the collection of renowned Italian jeweller GIOIELLERIA BONI.
